Ya, my guinea pig had that same thing happen, and she was pregnant immediately. We saw it too late and removed the male, but it was no good.

She is probably already pregnant. She can get pregnant the VERY MOMENT she was done having babies! What were you thinking keeping them together? What were you thinking having a mixed pair to begin with??
Now if you had any sense at all you would separate them. Then, sex the babies because the males are fertile and ready to hump their mama at 3 weeks old. The female babies are ready to have their own babies at 5 weeks old.
Get it right this time. Do you know how many homeless guinea pigs there are?I have thirty in my rescue right now because of careless and ignorant people like you.

Guinea pigs can get pregnant right after birth and they can also put off their pregnancy until they are ready. I have guinea pigs that have been together and then separated them all winter. I found two of my females pregnant and the males were in another cage with no contact at all. I checked the females to make sure I didn't make a mistake sexing them and they were all female. If the weather is really bad or there is sparse food available, the female can hold off her pregnancy for better conditions. Nature has really looked out for the
Guinea pig.

You need to remove the male; at this point, she is already pregnant. The male will breed the baby female at 3 to 4 week so it is imperative to remove the male, and sex the babies at 3 week. The mother will deliver in 63 to 68 day. Again, sex babies and remove male. You can place the baby boys with the dad as they are young and he should bond with them, just remember to sex them or you will have a mess. I help to run a guinea pig rescue and we have had people come in with 20 some piggies from not separating them and all the female where pregnant again.

Yes!! Guineas don't have a specific time that they can get pregnant. They can get pregnant during the labor period. They can also hold semen until they are ready to give birth.
When you find out that your female is pregnant separate the male to avoid litter after litter.

you should have them spend some high quality time at the same time. on the first day, enable them play at the same time for 5 minutes. if the older guinea pig starts getting aggressive, separate them and the subsequent day, carry them firmly yet gently and enable the older one meet the toddler. if the older one remains performing aggressive, you should split them and examine out to introduce them again at the same time as the toddler receives older. in the experience that they both do nicely with one yet another for the 5 minutes, separate them for the nighttime, and then the subsequent day, enable them play with one yet another for quarter-hour. shop a close eye on them and make certain they are gentle. each day, improve the play time in 10 minute increments till they are gentle staying with one yet another for an hour. in case you imagine your older guinea pig is somewhat too aggressive to stay with the different guinea pig for 15 min., placed them at the same time for 10 minutes and proceed on to an identical progression as earlier through including 10 minutes to the play time each day.

Yup. If she weren't able to get pregnant again she would have stopped him. Most rodents have a short gestation time and an even shorter recovery time. I would only put them together when you want to mate them.

separate them! 2 females are the best to have if you want two. Be a responsible pet owner!!

Our vet told us our female can get pregnant as she is giving birth (ugh!). I would separate them although the deed may be done.
