Hi
I was wondering how much weight a piggy should put on?

Re: Guinea pigs weight

I don't know what happens month by month, but Cookie weights 2.4 lbs and she is 10 months old.

Re: Guinea pigs weight

Well that completely depends on their age. I had six babies from birth and their weights were similar but a few were different. I have weight charts on all of them for the first two years of their lives. It's not quite done on a monthly basis but you will get the gist.

This is the runt of the litter:

And the biggest of the litter:

This one is a girl from the same litter, the first two are boys. Presley is your 'average' size gpig:

But as I said it completely depends on the pig.

Re: Guinea pigs weight

It really depends on the gp. There is no set amount there should be.
