No, if you feed it regularly.
Male guinea pigs do tend to eat their baby's after birth , so before your female guinea pig has her baby's you should make sure to Remove The Male from the cage and keep the baby's with their mother . After about 2-3 weeks you can put the male baby's in with their dad for a little while but you must rub a little bit of the dads cages bedding on the baby's (gently) so that the dad does not eat them. Also they're still are males so if they fight you should separate them.
Yes the male will eat the babies if you don't remove him (if I were you I would remove the male BEFORE the babies are born) Why does the male eat the babies?
This may sound weird, but the male gets jealous of the female and will wanna fight, so to get revenge, he will eat her babies. So PLEASE DON'T keep the male in there!
Thank -you!!!
:)
the dad guinea pig will not eat the baby guinea pigs because they are vegetarians and dont eat meat and a baby guinea pig is meat so they wont eat them unless there an evil guinea pig not from this planet lolx
