the simple fact is (having not read most comments) you shouldn't hold a baby Guinea pig for about a week as there is risk the parent will kill, and eat, the baby should it smell of human
They are not stupid. I had baby guineas and they are fine being held that young. The books say not to but it is fine. I had guinea pigs my whole life. so people chill out.
Please dont call the young kids stupid! I mean I dont care if they like threw them around and crap but They are cute & they held them properly. It was just a slight and calm kiss, you act like they killed the babie.. You all are just bored and you NEED to just find SOMETHING WRONG with every video...
we had over 30 gunea pigs over a time space of around 7 years
we had 1 boy 1 girl at first the girl gave birth to 7 babies the 2nd mum had 4 & so on there were more boys than there were girls when we stopped buying guinea pigs
Those guinea pigs are probably FINE. I'm so sick of people calling ANIMAL ABUSE!!! on every pet video. It's ridiculous. Unless you see someone striking an animal or holding it underwater or something like that don't claim to know everything about the situation! Everyone needs to realize the great majority of pet owners are not experts and probably don't always do EVERYTHING perfectly. The same can probably be said for our own children but we don't go calling everyone bad parents! Just lay off!
@Sleyah Just because a person isn't striking the animal does not mean that they're inadvertently harming it. It would be stupid to not point it out something that they aren't aware of rather than let them continue hurting the animal.
@brw147 That's not what my problem is. My problem is people calling it "abuse" when the owner is clearly not doing it on purpose, or calling them "stupid" for not handling the animal perfectly. Yeah, I get what the issue is, I raised guinea pigs myself for several years. But just going by this video nobody can claim anything harmful happened to those guinea pigs as a result of handling.
U R SO STUPID DO WUT ALL THE PEOPLE R TELLING U IN THE COOMMMENNTS!!!!!
1. THERE 2 YOUNG 2 BE HELD AND 2 WEAK 8 HOURS OLD!?!?!
2. CANT U SEE THERE SCARED!!!!!!
3.DONT KISS HTEM NEAR THERE EARS IT BOTHERS THEM
4.DO THEY live outside??!?!?!
5.ur so loud!!!
also they shouldnt be in the sun it kills them even adult guinea pigs why am i even commenting this came out 3 years ago in ur care they probably died 2 1\2 years ago!!!!
When my 2 guinea pigs gave birth...we had 4 baby pigs...all of which were quite happy to be picked up hours after birth :) We were very carefull and gentle with them :) Mind you one of our babies was fighting with her mum at 2 days old sending her 8 month old mum running away crying XD
@TheOstrichGods My guienea pig gave birth to 8 and every one survived and then one of them had babies and she died and we sold them and they are like 5 of them now
@abbeyelizabeth94 um actually guinea pigs are one of the few rodents that don't eat their babies if they are picked up...just fyi.....the rodents that do eat their babies are gerbils, hamsters, mice, rats etc. Cavies however are not on the list.
Hmm, are you sure you're not thinking of the Lagomorphs? I know the rabbits got kicked out of the rodent family at some point because of the tooth difference and herbivorous diet. Unless cavies have been reclassified recently, last time I checked they were in the rodent family. Don't guinea pigs have two incisors each on top and bottom? I believe that's what classifies rodents as far as teeth go.
@FlyingScribJelly Nope, I know rabbits are lagomorphs and mice, rats, etc. are rodents, but cavies are neither. I discovered this when my g-pig Benny was sick and I took him to the vet's (he's fine now, BTW) and they classified him on the forms as a cavy, not a rodent. When I had pet mice and brought them to the vet, they were classified as rodents.
after the mum gave birth to the 10 babies we gave 4 of them to my uncle & all the boys after that before we stoppd gettin them we would get them nuterd
ei ur comment is not true even if you carry the new born baby , the mother will still nurse it.....i hav 27 guinea pigs here and 35 guinea pigs in philippines....i carry my past new born guinea pups but the mother still nurse them...
i think you can old the guinea pig after 6 hours but be xure to handle them with fully care i carried my 6 hours guinea pig but i'm fully carefull and they know how to run already...i dont know how did they learn how to run after 6 hours??unlike my old guinea pig babies they learn how to walk after 1 day.......
for me i think the carry the baby but just carry the baby with fully carefull.....i had 27 guinea pigs here and 35 guinea pigs in the philippines.....
@TheCodmw2rocks because i was only around 6 when my parents 1st started buying guinnea pigs they wanted ther kids to hav a pet n we had guinnea pigs but we dont buy them anymore
@cole003f yeah i guess your right, even tho i would want to, i wouldnt cuz, well u know when a cat has kittens hw the mother eats them when u touch them before they r ready? well maybe guinea pigs do that (sorry if im not right its cuz i never had a pigget before but im getting one after x-max :) _ )
@cole003f You don't made yourself sound very smart, so I don't get how you expect people to take you seriously. Learn to type. Also, we found our baby guinea pig after probably 18 hours [she was born at night] and we held her, and she was fine. She's still fine.
@cole003f And weirdly, someone can also keep 30 Guineapigs in a single day or more, and for someone whom've kept well, 30 pigs, and can't spell "Guinea"? Babies can certainly be picked up once they're born and cleaned well enough by their mum.
@cole003f I'm sorry, but Guineapig mommas NEVER eat their pigs. I picked up mine just fine and I don't even see any of them being kicked out by their mum, let alone get eaten.
@cole003f Please dont call the young kids stupid! I mean I dont care if they like threw them around and crap but They are cute & they held them properly. It was just a slight and calm kiss, you act like they killed the babie.. You all are just bored and you NEED to just find SOMETHING WRONG with every video...
the mother guinea pig needs a few days to get used to the smell with your mum picking up day old 1's the scent from your mum is a completely new smell to the mother guinea pig
All ours have been fine & she's not an idiot. The mother will have known the babies from birth & they know my mother's scent. She cuddles them regularly so they get used to her. We generally leave them for a couple of days anyway. I do understand that children should wait though, I do agree with that as excited children can be risky
if a guinea pig is new born how many hours will it take until it will be like 2 hours old and if the baby is 8 hours old is that the ending will it be like 9 YEARS old???Or example your guinea pig is eight hours old how many hours left would it take to be nine hours old cause i'm thinking of getting a guinea pig.....but i don't know how many years or weeks would it take to grow into an adult please reply please.
to vickythelizard... I had two baby guinea pigs born in my house, and the mother did not reject them after they were touched. Baby guinea pigs do need their mother for nursing and guidance, but they aren't as helpless as newborn mice or rats or rabbits. They are born with everything an adult has. Unlike other rodents, they are already developed. My newborns only nursed for a few days then started eating solid food. One of the many amazing things about cavies!
your not aloud to use paper shaving with ink on them. it has to be plain paper shavings. im not sure how, but at points, the ink might run or something. my loacal pet shop told me but i wasnt listening completely.
My guinea pig gave birth today to two amazingly cute guinea pigs which are black and white like their mother and have some brown spots from thier father.
Unfortunately guinea pigs have been known to eat their babies, but it has nothing to do with you picking them up too early. And I don't trust anything a pet store says as far as care for your animals, I adopted a GP from a pet store that told me the GP was a mama, I took their word, imagine my surprise when I found out it was a male. Mama, not likely LOL Didn't matter to me though, I love him anyways.
Careful they are only babies dont snatch and throw them about! Also yout piggies are in danger with that sun on there cage as they can get sunburnt yes they can especially new b
no they dont Ive 37 piggies and Ive not had one eat their young. and I handle them as soon as their born.... your thinking of rabbits . they destroy their young if touched. i help mum clean them up if im about when their born.
Dont You Know anything ?You can pick them up as soon as the mum has cleaned them and fed them and stuff, probably about 5hours old. And they ones are 8 :)
I should know both of mine have given birth (well one) so i did lots of reaserch
These people need to be a bit more gentler when it comes down to picking them up because they are still babies and are very fragile. So cute though!

Hey, what's the bedding you used? Is it very absorbable coz I hate using shavings coz' it gets messy somethmes.

your not aloud to use paper shaving with ink on them. it has to be plain paper shavings. im not sure how, but at points, the ink might run or something. my loacal pet shop told me but i wasnt listening completely.

you can use shredded paper with ink, as long as the ink is soy based.

I just discovered that my guinea pig is pregnant and i expect her to give birth any day now i hope my guinea pig's babies are as cute as tose ones.

Unfortunately guinea pigs have been known to eat their babies, but it has nothing to do with you picking them up too early. And I don't trust anything a pet store says as far as care for your animals, I adopted a GP from a pet store that told me the GP was a mama, I took their word, imagine my surprise when I found out it was a male. Mama, not likely LOL Didn't matter to me though, I love him anyways.

Why would a herbivore, like a guinea pig, eat thier own young, i know they eat remnants of the placenta but no the youngs themselves.
DonJohnofAustria 3 years ago 2
they don't eat their own baby's, where did you get that from?? rubbish.

probably because hamsters do it. People always get guinea pigs confused with hamsters, it's so annoying.

you can pick them up at a few hours old after mummy has fed and cleaned them, i find this best because they become more friendlier
