They are a lovely vets, but they have acknowledged that they do not see many guinea pigs. I would not let them operate on the pigs, but they seem to do fine on the check ups... although I'm not so sure now!

2. I don't know how many more times I have to say that she IS pregnant, the vet is not stupid. They are recommended because they're really good. And she an only be 3 weeks at the most so thy do not need to be separated yet.
I'm not sure why you would wonder if it was safe to neuter a male pig because the female was pregnant. I'm not seeing your logic here. Why wouldn't it be safe? He isn't the one who is pregnant.Gees this thread was started because I wanted to know if it was safe to neuter guinea pigs BECAUSE my sow is pregnant and I don't want anymore pregnancies. If I thought for one second that she wasn't he would not be housed with her.
I wasn't asking your opinions on whether to separate them now or not, even the person I bought them off who has owned pigs for 15 years has advised me they only need to be separated in 5 weeks time.
They are 11 months old. Which is why I want the sow not to have anymore pregnancies as this is apparently her third litter. I'm sure the person I bought them off wouldn't lie, especially knowing I would buy her pregnant or not.
