Oh yes you can. Guinea pigs can breed at a very early age. Your pet can handle being a parent at its age.

I'm Charlotte and I'm editing the answer above because who ever wrote it doesn't have a clue about the right answer. (no offence).

if you breed a guinea pig over 6 months old her pelvis bones would have welded together and her and her babies could die unless a vet get to them very quickly.

the age to breed a guinea pig is between 4-6 months.

no sooner no later.

and that's the correct answer.

Yes, I would say that eight weeks is a bit too young to start breeding your guinea pig. I would suggest waiting until your guinea pig is about four months old to start the breeding process.
