Yeah i think it's the only choice to do >.< Btw, my Baby Gp is 3 days old now and today she start eating the grass i gave to her mother. Is it harm if the baby eat so early? They LOVE to eat grass. If u put vege and grass infront of them, they will definately go for grass. So i give them grass everyday.

QUOTE(chamyk2311 @ May 25 2009, 08:48 AM) Is it LuLu's the one who giving birth that day? Take out one male, What Jas said is right, actually take both male out better coz at least the mom will get some rest. Back to back breeding can sometimes kill the sow. You can mix both the males in one cage and see how. Leave the mother with the baby GP. Males won't fight unless there is a female inside the same cage.New Update: After my female GP give deliver to a baby, 2 of my Male GP start to fight with each other. It nvr happen like tis b4 but dunno why it happen after my female gp giving birth. I have made 2 reasons for the fighting which is 1. They are fighting to be the Babys' Father =.=. 2.They are fighting for the female GP because she's available now. so i have to saperate them in 3 cages now. But now, it's abit waste space because using 3 cages. Is there any solution for the 2 male not to fight? P/S: The female and the baby is in the different cage.

Its of normal nature where the baby will test on food aside from drinking mum's milk. Try to mix alfalfa and timothy now since there is a baby inside the cage  Alfalfa good for baby growth  |

I have alr saperate the females with the males so she can feed her baby and get rest. The problem is both of the males will fight even if the female not in the cage. So i have to saperate them too. So each GP got their own cage. Wait till time goes by, i will try to put the male together again.
alright i'll go give the baby some alfafa now. But the baby don't have teeth, how to bite? Here's the baby pic i too yesterday.

My GP already had 3 baths in the space of 2 weeks... lol... toilet training lazy GP is a chore. My sheltie is sleeping in the dirty litter box everyday. Although I clean it daily, but coz she pee n sit in it, the fur is all dirty. Then when the other GP want to use the toilet oso cannot == Feel like cutting her botak adi, haha.... I think end of the week I need to try putting the grid back on the litter box and hope they still use it...

Not sure about bathing guinea pigs when they are still juvies.. but i presume when they are out and about on their own you can start bathing them. About deworming, just check with your vet to be sure and when can i start their deworm routine? Technically guinea pigs don't really need to deworm often. But its just good practice to make sure they dont have any sort of protozoa in their body. Since they graze and anything they see lol.. including poop.. so definitely got some bacteria. |

Actually 3 weeks old is strong enough to sustain the wet experience for a baby GP. Honestly speaking I never dewormed my GPs before...and I don't see any problem with them either. May be I am lucky...but I would think do that only it is really necessarily.and when can i start their deworm routine? This post has been edited by Juztiny: May 25 2009, 10:54 PM |

thanks alot for the advise
 well they are not smelly or anything, the mommies really did a good job keeping them clean yeah i guess i better consult a vet about deworming...lots of newborn GPs this year i see, and many ppl seem to have interest on GPs too, maybe influenced by Bedtime Stories. everyone who know me rearing GP will call my piggies "bugsy" hahaha~! |

 Do you think it is a good ideal putting a small piece of flat base marble on the cage good for your baby GP's legs? Will their leg get sangkut at those material?  |
