guinea pig pups
« on: March 01, 2015, 02:32:58 AM »

I picked up a group of guinea pigs nearly 2 months back.  Supposed to be 4 sows with 2 *female* younger ones.  1 of those turned out to be male.  Guinea pigs can possibly breed as young as 3 weeks so at 8weeks and being kept with the females everyone is likely pregnant. 

Iroiro just had these


The broken red I haven't named is looking quite round.  Kuro is not though.  Maybe she actually didn't get pregnant.

Sow #2 had these earlier in the evening




The light one is an interesting mix.

That is so cool. Guinea pigs are fun.

I'm a programmer not a chinchilla breeder. I learn by asking questions just like you.

They are so easy to handle and durable compared to chinchillas.   rofl  I missed having guinea pigs.  My husband didn't want them in the condo.  I steal a pup most evenings to watch tv with me.  After some complaining that mom is not around they will flop on me to sleep for an hour or 2.  It will be sad when they are gone.  Iroiro is my tamest adult but the adults have the downside of pooping their own body weight while out.
