When can baby guinea pigs come away from mom?

Answer 1

They are born ready to eat and drink water on their own. They need to start being weaned at 2 weeks old and fully at 3 weeks old. Males become fully fertile at 3 weeks old and to prevent back breeding, they must be removed.

Answer 2

Guinea pigs only need to stay with their mothers for 3 weeks. Be sure to separate all male babies from their mothers and sisters at no later than 21 days old. They can become sexually mature as young as 3-4 weeks of age and will impregnate their mom and/or sister(s).

Answer 3

That depends.

If they are stuck with glue, a simple tug will do. They may lose some fur, though.

If they are stuck emotionally, I don't know. Call this number, they might know: 202-456-1111 (He's a guinea pig expert)

If they are genetical stuck, then why separate them? You got a perfectly good two headed guinea pig!

Answer 4

Baby guinea pigs can be separated from their mother once they are around 3 weeks old. It is important to ensure they are weaned and eating solid food before separating them to ensure they can properly care for themselves.
