Question
we have 1 guinea pig for about 2 years. and now we recieved 3 new ones. i've noticed that the older guniea pig is getting rounder and one of newer ones is also getting bigger.
i fear one of the newer guinea pigs is a boy. help!

Answer
Hi Rhea

Yes it sounds like the guinea Pigs are pregnant to no for sure
Check the eating and sleeping habits
Also check her nipples are they swallen?
If so then she is most likely haing some babies
And lastly if you Palpate her stomach/Feel her stomach
You should be able to feel little lumps in her, They are the babies.

Things should be ok but i need to know the ages of the old and new one and if the new ones that you got are related?
