Hello guys haven't been on in long time but its been just over a month since I started feeling Mama's babies kicking. I have been waiting for what seems forever and I really have no idea what to do anymore!
Alright so she had two babies last march and I was told one was a female so I kept her and four months later I found out it was a male well giving him a hair cut and a bath.. Anyways I separated them right away but by then she had started showing signs of pregnancy and I was sure until I felt the babies and heard them chattering... The thing is: I heard them chattering extremely active like every second they were kicking-that was a week ago and things have died down terribly. I looked up toxima that's what I thought she had but other then being lazy she as not stopped eating and I want to take her to the vet but they are hour half away so I am not sure if these babies will make it.. It's beyond time and very little movement. I have little hope for the newborns to make it out alive.
To make matter worth I'm moving in two weeks and was hoping for her to give birth because its a four and half hour trip... I plan to cut fresh veggies for her to keep her dehydrated but I have no other choice but to take her. I have no family or friends that will take her. I am the only guinea pig lover in my entire family my mom,grandma, step-dad and grandpa think they are disgusting... So I guess should I risk taking her to the vet or just let it play out and hope for the best? I love her so so much but I'm literally kept between a rock and a hard spot. I only want what's best and the most humane thing possible for her. Thanks to any advise given.
