Can female guinea pigs have babies without male guinea pigs?
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
My Girl guinea pig has just had four babies guinea pig when can i start cleaning out her cage?
When my female had her babies, a couple hours later i cleaned up the bloody bedding and that was it. I had cleaned out the cage when I anticipated she was in labor and a couple hours later she had the babies. Congrats on the new addition to your family.
Do guinea pigs like or dislike there cage?
Depends on the Guinea Pig - also on the cage. I keep my guinea pigs in an open-bottomed cage.
What should i do I am getting to hamsters if they mate and she has babies should i get them out of the cage immediately so she doesn't eat them?
If she does have babies, take the male out so she WON'T eat them. She may get stressed. Also, don't get the baby hamsters out of the cage. They will probably die, and if you put them back in the cage, the mother hamster may eat them. Just watch the baby hamsters and the mother hamster. Hope this helped. DON'T TAKE THE BABIES OUT OF THE CAGE!!!!! With out the mom the babies will die. And if you put the babies back before they die she will eat them. Besure to take the male out yhe cage. If she feels like here babies are indangered she will eat them.good luck.
Should you keep other guinea pigs away from a mother and her new babies?
They should not, but sometimes that does happen, but that has never happened to me.
Are other female guinea pigs ok in the cage with guinea pig babies and the mother?
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.
When will the daddy guinea pig be back with the mother guinea pig?
it depends if you want more babies then after the babies are cleaned off put the boy back in otherwise your boy has to go in a different cage
Can a guinea pig be in the same cage as her babies?
Yes
Should you take other guinea pigs out of cage with babies?
No, they wont harm the babies.
How soon after a guinea pig delivers babies can you put others in the cage?
Not until the babies are weaned. This is safer because the mother will protect them and may fight other pigs. Never put a male in with a female with babies.
Can you observe baby guinea pigs without the mother guinea pig eating them?
well actually your question makes no sense. it's the dad's that eat the babies not the mom's and your solution, take the dad out of the cage.
What to do while cleaning a hamsters cage while babies are in there?
If you clean the hamster's cage before the babies are old enough, the mother might kill her babies.

Do you let the fish out of the cage when its given birth?
Assuming what you mean by cage is a breeder net/cage, it is a good idea to let the mother out of the cage once you are sure she is 'done.' If it is not a two way breeder net then the mother may eat the babies because the babies will not be able to escape. Even if it is a two way so that the babies can escape, the mother will become stressed from living in such a small enclosure.
Do male guinea pigs eat there babys?
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.
You have two female guinea pigs one had babies 3 weeks ago the other is due in a week or two you need to remove the male babies can you put the pregnant female in the cage with baby female and her mom?
As long as the male guinea pigs have been weaned they are ready to leave their mother, as you cannot keep a mother with her own male babies, because if they mate the babies that she has will have genetical problems. No you can't keep the two adult mothers together as when the babies are born they will try to feed off both mothers.
