Question
i hav a male and a female 4 mounth old guinea pigs can they get pregnet. also are they full grown at 4 mounths old???

Answer
Hello,
Guineas can get pregnant from 6 weeks of age and can make other guineas pregnant from that age too. They are not fully grown at 4 months old but they can still have babies but there are sometimes complications. They best age for a guinea to have babies is about 6 months old, if they have babies after 9-10 months of age there will be complications. If you are really worried about your guinea contact your local vet.
Best wishes
