She is most likely pregnant. Separate them ASAP. Did you accidentally purchase a guinea pig of the wrong sex? Are you sure of the guinea pigs sex?

If you want to know that you would have to see a vet. Just in-case anything goes wrong with the pregnancy have a Cavy Savvy vet ready. If I were you I would head over to guinea lynx and study up on guinea pig pregnancies. Gestation period is from 59-73 days. If you really want to know how far along she is you will have to go to a vet.

Definitely keep him away from the female. Do you know how old the female is?

You need to give her extra vitamin C and calcium. Animals have an instinctive knowledge of what to do when the babies arrive, so you won't need to intervene. Read this as well https://www.guinealynx.info/reproduction.html.

Hi, welcome to the forum.
Make sure you permanently separate the male from the female.
Did you breed them on purpose?
As well as that, please don't buy from pet stores again... They're very bad places (well most of them), and they support breeders. There is already an over run of guinea pigs in the world, and pet stores create more, and encourage mill breeders.

Did you purposly breed your pigs? Or was it accidental?

Just so you know, this forum is generally anti-breeding.
