Well I refiled her water so she has plenty when she gave birth,I gave her fresh pellets and hay. you dont want to have lots of guinea pig bedding around the guinea pigs private area because when she opens the babys sack the bedding can sufficate the baby.And when the guinea pig gives birth keep a carefull eye on her if you are awake because if your guinea pig is giving birth to 3-5 pups they might come out right after ine another and she might not be able to open the sack so in a few the pups can sufficate.
Not unless it is the father, take out the father 2 weeks before birth as the mother can become pregnant 2 hours after birth, this is fatal to the baby's and mother, the father may kill the baby's if left in same cage after birth. thank you hope i helped
If i were you i would get a big cage so the guinea pig can run around Good luck with your piggie I have a big cage that holds 2 guinea pigs and they chase each other around the whole cage!!!
You need to keep any males out of the same cage that a pregnant female is in. You can keep other females with the pregnant one. If you think you may have a problem with the pregnant one, you can cage her by herself.
Guinea pigs generally like their cage as it provides them with a safe and secure space to retreat to. However, it's important for the cage to be spacious enough to allow for exercise and enrichment activities. Regular cleaning and cage maintenance are also necessary to ensure their well-being.
If the cage is too small take it back and get a new one! Never get anything hamster for a guinea pig. If you have a small cage then that means you got a hamster cage.
Yes because there is the after birth from the guinea pig
You should wait 24 hours after birth before cleaning the cage.
No its not, i guinea pigs cage is way bigger. & you should not have the same size of guinea pig cage as your hampster.

Yes, she may get excited and that may cause complications with her birth
Male Guinea Pigs (Nor Females) do NOT eat the babies, however, the Males should be removed from the cage just before birth because the Mother can become pregnant again within hours of delivery, and this is dangerous to her.
a great place to get a guinea pig cage is probably Amazon or Craigslist.
No. The male guinea pig shouldn't be in the cage or otherwise he could make the female pregnant again once she's given birth. This is very dangerous. Also when the baby guinea pigs are 2-3 weeks you should put the boys with the dad and the girls with the mom. Not in the same cage though. Anyway, good luck!
No. I usually slice an apple and put then in the cage.
For two guinea pigs you need at least 7.5 feet of cage.
No, paraketes need a bird cage not something made for a guinea pig. They have special needs for their cage so you need a bird cage.
