Guinea pigs do not have piglets; they have pups. A guinea pig can have anywhere from 1 to 8 pups in a single litter, with the average litter size being around 2-4 pups. It is essential to provide proper care and support for the mother and her young during this time.
it all depends how big your cage is if it's small 1 medium maybe 2 or 3 large 2 and maybe have babies. then it depends if your home alot and always have time to it play with it and give it attention then its okay to get one with a small cage but it needs a friend if not, also make sure it always has somwhere to hide and lots of space to run and jump (pop) they are really harmless shy animals I've had alot of experience you can see on my message board but i do not know those big crazy genetic questions you have to be awesome to know that stuff
Have what in HER or HIS life?
they can have as many as possible before they become a senoir
it is best to get 2 guinea pig's to keep each other company if you don't your guinea pig might chew its feet so WATCH OUT!
It depends. If you have less time to spend with your piggies they will be happier with 3, if you are having financial issues getting 2 is a better idea.
at least two guinea pigs, for they are social animals, and like company. only having 1 is like being the only one who speaks you language. if you want a guinea pig I suggest watching little adventures and study, and save up for them. remember they are our friends, and we should take care of them.

Will male pigs harm newborn piglets?
The males may not intentionally harm the piglets but may get a little aggressive and bite or step on the piglets. It is not recommended to keep a litter with the father and the mother as there are usually too many in a litter, space may become limited and they would be at greater risk of getting stepped or laid on. It is best to keep the mother in a medium sized pen, one that is big enough for the mother to lay down and not squish the babies, away from other larger pigs.
