Why is your guinea pig chewing on her babies?

If they are newborn, beware. When they are first born, the mother will be very protective of them... and sadly, if anyone touches them or comes near them, the mother will chew their heads off! So if anyone's been around them, make sure the mother doesn't kill them. If she tries, you might have to separate them, or give them to the pet store! Or they will die.. :(
