Is my Guinea Pig pregnant?

21 13:42:41

Question
I have a male guinea pig but he is way bigger than my other male
so I think he might be a pregnant female.
My guinea pig also squeaks when I touch its belly
is that normal or is my guinea pig pregnant?

Answer
Without a picture it's very difficult to tell, but it's not uncommon for owners to think they have two boys and suddenly they have a litter of little ones. If your pig is pregnant you will feel movement by putting both hands on either side of her belly. The movement is typically felt about two or three weeks before delivery.

Is it possible that you could send me a picture?
