Pregnancy is very hard on them, and a pregnant female has a 25% chance of dying from complications even if you do everything right. If you want baby guinea pigs, check online for local shelters and ask around. You can also look on Craigslist to see if someone in the area is selling a litter--lots of people buy missexed pigs from pet stores that don't know what they're doing, and end up with a pregnant female followed by a litter they can't keep. Please DO NOT try to breed them yourself.
