Flip them over and look, their nipples get really big while they're nursing so you should be able to tell which is Mom that way. The sexing pages are great in helping to tell which is which. If you do take them to a vet, which I HIGHLY recommend, make sure it's an exotics vet that knows about guinea pigs, a regular vet might not know enough and mis-sex them....resulting in more babies.
Good luck. |
The parents look the same. None of them have big nipples. But I saw one of them mount the other. And that one looks like the other parent.
