How often can guinea pigs become pregnant?
Guinea pigs can become pregnant again IMMEDIATELY after giving birth. They can also get pregnant at any age, but after passing a certain age, they are very likely to die. Even a young, healthy pig at prime breeding age has a 25% chance of dying from a pregnancy. Please do not breed your guinea pigs. If you already have a pregnant female, be sure she doesn't get pregnant again afterwards by removing the father immediately and removing male babies 21 days after the birth.
Can a guinea pig be pregnant even if they're young because I've only had my guinea pig for 1 week and 4 days?
It is not likely for a guinea pig to become pregnant after being in your care for such a short time. Guinea pigs typically have a gestation period of around 59-72 days, so you should not worry about pregnancy at this point. Make sure to provide proper care and housing for your new guinea pig.
Can a mell ginea pig eat the babies?

Can a month old young guinea pig transfer to its father's cage?

Iam 16 have been trying for over a year to get pregnant and nothing why?
Getting pregnant can take a few minutes or a few years - some have to wait years before they get pregnant while others get pregnant even if they don't want to. At 16 you are young to want to get pregnant - why the hurry ? Live and enjoy your young life a bit more.
