It takes about 5-30 minutes for a mother to give birth to her baby(s). If it takes longer than that you have to get some help or go to the vet because if you don't the female guinea pig could die. Or the baby would have problems with it brain. (It just depends were it got stuck. If its halfway out it coming all the way out so don't worry about that. It could take 15 minutes for each guinea pig to come out if it is halfway out. It will take 5-30 minutes for all the guinea pigs. (Depending on how many guinea pig babies she has)

When do guinea pigs have their babies?

it depends if you want them pregnant, if you want babies, put the male and famale together for about a day, that should do it. If you don't want them pregnant, and you only put the male and female together every once in a while, it depends for how long you leave them together. Just some extra info: to know if your female is pregnant, wait for about a month and a half. If she starts getting unusually fat (large belly, small head), she is most likely pregnant. take the male out if he's not out all ready. when the babies are born, if the male is still in the cage with the female, the male could distract the female away ROM consentrating on the new born babies and some could die. When my female had babies, the male was still in the cage, 2 of the 4 babies died.
