The breathing will be steady, the babies will kick out of scync.
well in one go a female guinea pig can have 20 babies sbut the most i have seen n one go are 60
Guinea pigs, most likely have their babies during the night. I know that when I had my pregnant guinea pig, I kept her in my room until she had babies. She woke me in the middle of the night with her sounds while giving birth.
It is not called humming, guinea pigs do that type of sound because they are breathing.
To find out if your guinea pig is pregnant, place her on your lap and feel for kicking. If you can't feel anything, put your hands on both sides of your guinea pig's body and surely you will feel something. If there are still no signs of kicking, gently touch the guinea pig's stomach and if she doesn't like it that most probably means that she's protecting a baby. I hope this piece of information helps you and your piggy!
Well, If you want you can be there to watch but the guinea pig does not need you and in fact DO NOT touch her or the babies, and try not to touch her when she is giving birth nor the babies until the next week.
Not too much bigger than they normally are, their sides just bulge out and sometimes you can feel the babies kicking.
no our guinea pig had her babies at around 2 in the afternoon
if you can see the babies moving and kicking inside her, it will be less than a week before she gives birth. guinea pigs can become pregnant from as early as 4 weeks old, however it is rare and the gestation period is just under two months, your sow must me much older than what you were told when she was bought.
Unfortunately, there is no way to tell if a guinea pig has ever had babies before.
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.
Most of the time yes, but you must watch out for the rabbit kicking the guinea pig if they get mad at them.
No,some male guinea pigs actually help clean and care for babies
yes a guinea pig can have two babies if the conditions are correct and the fertilization is proper
They are known as Guinea Piglets.
The guinea pig will start to drink a lot more water than usual and you should notice the stomach getting larger. Also a week or 2 before the birth you can actually feel the babies kicking. My guina pig has given birth twice, the babies are adorable :)
