Hey, It is hard to tell a adult guinea pigs age, if you bort it from a pet store as a baby it would of been between 2-3 months old, if you take it to a vet they could possabley tell u the age by looking at its teeth,
Ok, a crested guinea pig and, I'm guessing you are referring to an abyssian guinea pig (not a cat) CAN breed. They are NOT two different species of animals. They are different BREEDS. Both are guinea pigs, so they can breed. Think of a lab (dog) and a dachshund (dog)........they, too, are different BREEDS, but the same SPECIES (dog)......so, they can also breed.
The most common breed of guinea pig is American short haired. They are easy to groom and handle.
You can breed different breeds of guinea pigs, such as American, Abyssinian, Peruvian, and Skinny pigs. It's essential to carefully consider genetics and ensure proper care for the pregnant guinea pig and babies. Responsible breeding can help maintain healthy and diverse guinea pig populations.
No, you don't need a pedigree or a registered animal to show a guinea pig. They do need to fit the breed standard and have no disqualifications for the breed and variety. For more info check http://www.acbaonline.com and http://www.arba.net
You should sell your guinea pig depending on alot of different things.... Whether it is a registered guinea pig, what type of guinea pig it is such as the more expensive breeds like peruvian, calic, crown etc. Or if your guinea pig is more of the uasull type such as the American long hair or the American short hair. Some times the German short hairs are uasull types in some states. If your guinea pig is a registered breed then you cann sell him/her for more than 40$ depending on the breed, If your guinea pig is a more expensive breed like the ones i have showed you above you can sell them with out being registered for between 30 to 40$ , If your guinea pig is one of the most common breeds you can sell them for 20 to 30$ , But always make sure you are putting your guinea pig in a good home :)
You can't breed it if there is not another animal for it to breed with.
Depends on the size of the guinea pig and it's breed.
it depends on its breed.
No you cannot.

Yes, I would say that eight weeks is a bit too young to start breeding your guinea pig. I would suggest waiting until your guinea pig is about four months old to start the breeding process. Otherwise, if you start breeding your guinea pig too early, there are multiple complications that could arrise that might affect the health of the mother of fetus(s).

Obviously you need another to breed so put up posters asking for what you need. Maybe put an add in your local paper.
I would suggest 5 months to a year so they have matured and are ready.
well you can force them or sometimes it just happens.i have one guinea pig named Picaso like Pablo Picaso and he is still a baby so he doesnt know how yet.
You can't ... you must have a boy and a girl. So ... buy another, borrow one from a friend, rent one. Your choice.
The Skinny Pig. Its practically bald.
