How Long Till My Gunea Pig Has Babys?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    7-10 days. You will notice that there will come a time when she will get fat very quickly, within 48 hours. When this happens, you have a few days till she gives birth. At this time, clean the cage thoroughly, as you won't be able to clean it for another 2-3 weeks.

    When you know the animal is pregnant, feed it more protein, in the shape of cheese, peanuts and oats. When she starts to deliver, the mother will move around a lot. Usually she will have all babies in the nest, but she might have them all over the cage. It is a good idea to have removed the father before she starts giving birth.

    Make sure you don't disturb the mother for two weeks, and don't touch the babies for this time too. Don't even touch the nest, as this could cause her to eat the babies.
