I happy I found you. I read that 3 week separation and I was like nooo that can’t be right, their to little at that time. I’ll definitely keep an eye on them so I know when to pull the males out. Thank you

Hello! I just noticed that the little piggies have a water bowl instead of bottles, what are the benefits of using bowls please xx

Hi Lyn, I have two pup siblings, one of them seems to be female. Both of them now are around 5 weeks old, although I don't see aggressiveness.should I separate them both? Also, should I keep the female one away from larger males?

Can’t believe I missed the live and I was only doing chores 😢. Glad you talked in detail about this and I have heard a lot of people just saying offhand 3 1/2 weeks, which always sounds to early for little ones.

I found this video and discussion informative, humane and kindly delivered. Thank you Lyn! I always worry when ANY baby is separated from its mother....was it thoughtful, individual and kind? Or was baby removed too soon for human convenience and/or profit?

Hi, thank you for the informative video! My female guinea pig just gave birth to 6 pups two days ago. It was an accident, we thought we have 2 females...
One is very tiny, Since I am afraid that it will be left out and isn't strong enough to get milk from the mother, I am feeding it on advice from people from the guinea pig Facebook group. I was told not to feed cows milk replacement, but goat milk. But some people even say, no milk from another species, it's bad for them. But I am living in Japan, and I don't have access to guinea pigs' milk here. Do you think there is a problem with goat milk? I looked the one up you recommended, but Amazon doesn't ship this one to Japan. If goat's milk is no good, could you please advise me on some other brands from the US or Europe, maybe?

My guinea pig just had her first litter of pups and idk how to get their genders! I’ve heard of boys getting their moms pregnant at only 2 weeks?! Is that possible? Please get back to me I need advice!

My (just turned) 3 weeks old baby has been climbing up his mom and my mother wants him completely separated so that he doesn’t impregnate our girls, but he looks so scared. Is there really a risk if I keep him with his family?

To reduce unwanted pregnancies, It is best to separate baby boys at 3 weeks before they become sexual matured. By three weeks momas piggies are doing their best to wean their pupbs

Hi what do u do when u remove the male quineapig whilst the mum has her litter like when there old enough and u remove the nales do they go with the dad and the girls stay with mum as apparently boys fight

[susannabonke]

I found it so hard to separate the small ones. They need Mom for social interaction. With 3 Weeks, at 280g, they were neutered..

[tjwoodworth]

Dad has been neutered. Is it better to put him with the males or the females and babies?

[taleenpunnett]

A great subject. I have been very lucky as most of the guniea pigs I have owned came from pet shops and have been sexed correctly 💜

How old should a baby boy or girl be to sell them
