They need to be in the same cage for about 3-5 weeks. If has been only 3 weeks and they are weaned then they can be taken out.
You should take the boys out at 3 weeks old otherwise its possible they could impregnate their mother or sisters, the girls you can keep with her as long as you want to, or until they are weaned. The weaning process is different with lots of different guinea pigs it can be 3 weeks or 4 or 5, it just depends on the mother. But normally any time after 3 weeks you can take them out or give them away.Remember the boys take out at 3 weeks for sure, the girls you can keep in a little longer. (just try to make sure who you are giving them to will care for them properly:) The babies should stay with the mom if you want you can give it TO A FRIEND no one else because you cannot trust anyone but your friend.:)
What else can I help you with?
How do i convince my mom that guinea pigs can live outside She says she doesnt like them living outside but i really want to get one and there is no space inside?
Well if she doesn't like rodents, guinea pigs don't really look like them. If that helps. But problem is guinea pigs can't really live full time outside.
If guinea pigs are weaned what does it mean?
there not drinking there mom's milk anymore.
How long should you keep the mum and dad guinea pigs together for?
Until the mum(mom) is pregnate then they stay away until the babies are full grown
Are other female guinea pigs ok in the cage with guinea pig babies and the mother?
I would not recommend it. Just have the Mother Guinea Pig in with her babies separately. Sometimes the other guinea pigs can get excited and accidentally stomp the babies to death so best to keep Mom & babies separate.
Why baby guinea pigs look after themselves?
It's different for every animal, but typically, babies do wean themselves. I have animals and though most wean themselves, sometimes you have to separate the baby from the mother for a period of time and then you can put the baby back in. At least it's easy to do that with guinea pigs...
Would a litter of guinea pigs mate with each other?
yes after the age of 3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the girls can stay with mom
Do you wash baby guinea pigs?
I don't thinks so because the mom or dad might eat them. That's what happened to my hamsters......
Are baby guinea pigs the same color as their mother?
not always but sometimes yes it can have colors of her dad or mom. I have experience that allot of times.
What do guinea pigs do when there baby is born?
Leave them alone for the 1st day then see if the mom is okay and not aggressive with yourself or the puffs. If there are dead guinea pigs then use sanatairy gloves and remove it. They should be very alert and clean by the 2nd day. Use recycled paper do they can have a better landing from the mother to the cage floor :) make sure she has lots of treats and fruit do she can be less streesed out. Only breed your guinea pig one a year if you want her to live longer. And put hay in their castle for mom to munch on! Good luck, hailey

Your guinea pig had a baby that had full hair and never nursed It was almost the size of the mom when it was born do guinea pig babies nurse at all Should they be full grown when they are born?
Guinea pigs are born with all their teeth and hair with their eyes open and on the run, this is normal. They do nurse off their mom, for about four weeks, and then you have to separate them from their mom. They are really cute when they're born.
How may baby guinea pigs differ from their parents?
Baby guinea pigs, also known as pups, are smaller in size compared to their parents, have softer fur, and are more playful and curious. They may also have different coat colors and patterns than their parents due to genetic variations. Additionally, baby guinea pigs tend to have more energy and may be more skittish or timid around humans until they become familiar with their surroundings.
