Hello, I have an American Guinea Pig whose age is roughly 1 year 8 months (I got her when she was 8 months). A friend of mine gave me a baby guinea pig last Dec 12,2014. My other guinea pig who is also a sow didn't like the baby and always trying to dominate the baby. On the other hand, Miggy lets the baby stay with her. After 2 weeks, I found out that the baby was actually a boar. My friend thought he was a sow. I couldn't separate the boar because I don't have a spare cage, although someone else adopted him around Dec 21, 2014.
January comes and I noticed some changes with Miggy. She more lazy, eats more than usual, always laying down. A few weeks passed and there's somewhat of a bulge in her tummy area. I was alarmed at this fact.
So this time I set up a cage and separated her, observing her weight and changes in her body. She became more heavy, and whenever she lays down, she looked obviously pregnant.
My worry now is that, its already March and she still hasn't delivered. I don't want to bring her to the vet cuz itll cause her more stress, plus I live in the Philippines. Few exotic vets for guinea pigs here, plus the clinics were very far from where I lived.
So, the boar was with my cavies Dec 12-21, 2014. If the 10 week mark is true, then my Miggy is definitely overdue. I asked a breeder here in Philippines to check my cavy based on the pic I was gonna show him, and he said maybe she would only have 1 litter. But he's not certain the baby is still alive, considering she's 2 wks overdue.
Idk what to do she still eats healthy to this day, and she doesn't have signs of illness. Currently her weight is at 930g. Pictures will be posted later.
