Guinea pig labor and delivery. WARNING: yucky stuff!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Mama Iris gives birth to babies three and four. Number four is little Poppy, we were not expecting her! Doctor thought she had three. Iris cleans the sac off the babies expertly. She has given birth before, but only two survived. This time all four babies are thriving. I think feeding mama critical care helped a lot.
Here it is 2021 and I still have baby Poppy, the last baby born. And Parsley, the only boy.
Sadly Iris and Piper are in Heaven. We don’t know about Petunia, she went to a new home. So we did end up keeping almost all of them.
2024 all over the rainbow bridge
😢❤️
im sorry rip
Its so astonishingly amazing how independent these tiny ones come out. A minute old and baby is already giving his little face a wash and scratching his precious little ear! Guinea pigs are such wonderful joyous creatures
Indeed! I know they have all gone to piggie heaven, but they are still helping people every day in this little video
They are so precious!!!! Iris is an amazing mommy!!!
Thank you! She is great so sweet
Aww, little Poppy decided to be a surprise baby! You are all so sweet!😍😍😍
Thanks for warning about yucky stuff.
Amazing they can hold such big babies inside.
Oh my goodness their feet’s are so big!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Awwww mini fluffs 💖
Best piggy birth video ever!
Aw thank you
Omg congrats!!! I’m so happy!!! 😁😁😁
They have grown so fast!
Aw how cute
Everyone needs a pigggy (guinnea pigs) in their life
You only had 1 job…..🤣 THANK YOU for the video 🥰
Omg she's so brave🥺 this is so cute💜
My guinea pigs about to pop soon , she’s called Ella and we are so excited 🥰🥰
Oh let us know when she has the babies💜
@@kayesguineapigs she had her babies the day before Mother’s Day
Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉 your Mother’s Day is different from here. Ours is in May. That is so sweet! How many babies?
@@kayesguineapigs born on the 13th of March , and only 2 , both boys
Just like my Princess and Mocha, they each had two babies
They are so cute
I love this animal
How old was your pig when this happened?
I adopted her from a family that was tired of breeding. I think she was about three she had had several litters and I promised her this would be her last. it was. Sadly, however, she did not live long past the babies weaning. she was just tired out…. I loved her. Her name was Iris.
@@kayesguineapigs Aw I am so sorry! She is such a beautiful pig! And she did soo amazing!! ❤️ so sorry for your loss! ❤️❤️❤️
Awww 😊 so cute
I cried happy tears . They’re beautiful and yes so big 🥰
So When shes ready to give birth, she should be on a soft blanket and not woodchips or hay or anything??
If possible. There should always be hay at all times. I’ve seen plenty of videos of piggies giving birth on wood bedding. I just prefer them to be on flannel.
Thanks 4 shareing
A couple months ago my guinea pig had 3 babies
i bought a black and white one from bills pet shop not knowing she was pregnant already and i had her about a month and saturday she had 3 babys but its crazy one is brown and white and the other 2 look solid black.
You never know what you’ll get!
I subscribed great video one of my pigs is a mama too
Thank you
Hi! I’ve just bred guinea pigs 2 very healthy pigs and the momma really is massive so definitely about to deliver! We already have many locals in search of pigs which is great as they are going to people who genuinely want the pet. I was just wondering if the mom happens to give birth at night when I’m not watching is there a high chance of problems or does it usually go swiftly like yours as this is my first ( of probably many!) litters :)
How old is mama? My girls all gave birth when we were home. Afternoon or evening. Birth can happen anytime. Make sure mama isn’t constantly bred please take papa away now. She will need all her strength for the babies. After the babies are weaned (three weeks)separate the males and females. I will talk to my breeder friend also.
Ok she said good to wait two weeks after weaning to breed again.
My girls all squeaked loudly, turned in circles and it began. Papa will only drive her crazy so get him out. Princess had to run to get Maple to fall out! If she isn’t done after an hour call the vet!!
Also, do you feed the mom critical care before she births's the babies or after?
Both. She needs the nutrition. 20-30ccs everyday before birth. After, as much as she wants, up to 60 ccs a day. Divide up into three to four feedings.
@@kayesguineapigs Thank you so much, I am guessing that she is around 50-60 days pregnant, but I will get the critical care as soon as I can!
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. So adorable I also wanted a hamster 😥😥😥. Make more videosssss
It’s a guinea pig 😁
@@chloecurrie9124 Lol. Yah I always say the wrong one lol. Even tho they look nothing a like.
Hi girly! My piggy is pregnant and on her last stages of her pregnancy, i was wondering how did the girl sound when she was giving contractions? she screeches but not a lot and it all started today so i don’t know if she’s having her babies today or someother day this week! pls answer me🥺
All three mamas turned in circles and gave short, loud squeaks. One had to run across the cage to get baby Maple to fall out, he was big! Let me know how things are going.
Even if it’s disgusting it’s still cute
So cute
It looks like my Guinea pig
My Guinean pig is pregnant and is about to give birth soon
We will say paw prayers for her. If you have any questions let me know.
Kaye's Guinea Pigs what kind of questions
Thea Gregory like how long should labor be, (30-45 minutes) how will she act when it starts(mine squeaked and turned in circles)what if she has trouble (call the vet!) is eating the placenta normal((Yes). What to do if she ignores them(put the babies under her to nurse and her mom behavior will kick in).
Kaye's Guinea Pigs thank you so much
The vet part I have not took her to the vet before because I just got her and I did not expect her to get pregnant so fast
In March my guinea pig got pregnant again I think she had the babies because I'm with my dad and she's at my mom's house and I leave tomorrow so I'll see her again
Paw prayers that she’s well!
@@kayesguineapigs She's fine it's a family of 5
Charles Sanders oh good!
@@kayesguineapigs Yep how's the mother guinea pig?
Charles Sanders I’m so sorry she passed away of kidney failure. I still have her son and my friend has one of her daughters.
mazeltov! It's a potato
My guinea pig only gave birth to one baby
That sometimes happens. Is the baby ok?
I’m so not ready for this I found out tonight that my bloated male guinea pig is a very pregnant female expected to give birth in the next few days. I have no idea what I’m doing I’m terrified. Breeding was the last thing I wanted that’s why I got two of the same sex or tried to get two of the same sex. I don’t know what I’m gonna do I don’t have space for any more animals in my house I don’t know anyone that wants guinea pigs I guess they’re gonna have to go to the Humane Society. I’m freaking out
Here’s my email we can talk about it. Your sow will know what to do hon. Do you know how old she is? Keep babies with mom until three weeks old. Email me: Kaye.marie@hotmail.com
I’ll help all I can.

Thank you so much mom has done a great job she’s about 10 months old at this point. All the babies went to the vet and that said they all looked good and that I have two boys and a girl the girl I’m definitely gonna keep not sure about the boys yet but so far so good. I’ve already given her dad up for adoption so at three weeks I will be putting the two boys in the spare cage.
@@alsswim Thank you for telling me. Three full weeks with Mom. Unless you see them humping her... that happened with one of my sows.
😍😍😍😍
Aw mine is pregnant !!
Oh congrats! If you need any help you can email me at Kaye.marie@hotmail.com
Im pretty sure mine is pregnant
Let me know if you have any questions I am glad to help.
👏😃👏🥹
It's not really that yucky
It's just the discharge from labour and all the birthing products like ambilicle chords and the sack the pups are birthing! 😊
Musical_potato potato good point
It’s birth. Same stuff happened when we all came into this world.😥
Thanks Mom❤️
The yucky part is the bodily fluids and her eating all that stuff off her babies. It’s also yucky to a lot because as humans we don’t lick our kids to clean them, so watching her do it is kinda gross. Yes it’s all natural and beautiful but also gross. That’s not a bad thing lmao
Awe, she’s an awesome mommy! Congratulations Iris!
I know good job Iris
I love Mama’s little squeak when the babies come out. They’re beautiful. Such a good mommy
What a good mom cleaning her babies
a house is not a home without s piggie...... 🎼🎶 what a nice wellcome-song for this sweet babies. 🌸🤗🌸
Aww thank you dear Irene
I love my piggies so much so nice to see piggie lovers they are amazing
We are here for you
Ye mine died and had no babies when I came home..😖
Noooo! We are so sorry! She was pregnant and passed away? We feel terrible for you. Paw prayers.
"It's a big one, no wonder it hurt" idk why that was so funny to me 😂
It is funny🐾
So precious! I know it’s discussing ad everything but it’s so amazing to watch guinea pigs give birth as it’s the circle of life. Plus, getting it on video is just incredibly life changing as the girl is now a mother and has babies to take care of! Great job mommy!❤️
It was amazing that we were both home and could get some on video! (I took the video)
Discussing? Really....
@@BeeBee-vo9vc yeah
You mean disgusting right?
Your piggy’s are soooo cute
Thank you!
Who else is eating something while watching this?
Hahaha i was eating when I started filming! I did put a warning on this.
i wasn't eating during the video
Gorgeous video thanks for sharing xxx I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing the little pigs grow 😍 my piggy is due to give birth any day and we are so excited. I’ve seen so many Guinea pig birthing videos to try and prepare me and this was a really lovely one ❤️ xxxx
The critical care was I think a great call. Extra nutrients is superb for mommas and babies health.
Thank you I did my best.
My piggie is heavily pregnant about to pop love ur video
Thank you! I hope you are home when she delivers. She will squeak loudly when they are coming! Also to help her with milk production I would feed Iris critical care mixed with sweet potato baby food . It really helped her to feed the four babies. If you have any questions I’m happy to help. I fed her 40 cc’s a day (syringe fed).
@@kayesguineapigs she had 3 healthy piggies one passed away but still got two and they're named sooty and sweep they're amazing
Victoria Lewis thank you for telling me. It’s so wonderful to have baby piggies!
@@kayesguineapigs most definitely they are my children if u want see pics here my email vickilewis1986@gmail.com drop me a email I email them to u
Baby guinea pigs and Life...Such a beautiful thing.
Can’t believe I got to watch! And video!
@@kayesguineapigs Lucky you! I missed my 4 by about 5 min.Right now I'm looking for a baby girl because my 3 girls just aren't right since Cookie passed.They just eat and sleep.
joss jones Aw I wish you could have one of mine
That’s a lot of babies to be in such a tiny mom. I thought they would be really tiny. I know nothing about Guinea pigs.
That is actually completely normal. And that is also the regular normal size guinea pigs are born. They arent big for a guinea pig at all
i loved that you were so supportive for her ❤❤❤
My guineapig gave birth about an hour ago don’t worry I’ve done all my research x
I remember when my Peanut had 5 llittle 1 female 4 males we gave em away
I need help im worried becuse we think our Guinea pig is preggo but its quarantine so no check ups,no nothing please anyone .im worried that somthing might happen and that she ir her babies will die,pls if anyone has advice pls send! Im just worried
Tell me please so I can help you better:
1. When was she last with a male piggie
2. How old is she
3. Why do you think she is pregnant
4. Are you sure your vets are not seeing anyone? All our vets are seeing patients. Check the web. Call them. Some vet will help you I am sure.
5. Do not keep males and females together from now on please!
You can email me Kaye.marie@hotmail.com
Thanks for replying
Shes around 14 weeks old.
We tried to keep the male away from her but we usally leave them in a play pen cage from time to time so there not lonely (big mistake?) And so they get exercise.We've Rang the vets and theyve said that they cant really do anything as they're only acepting the most servere pets.Is there any advice for comforting her?or is it ok to just let her do her part ? Thanks for asking .
Please don’t leave them together. If she isn’t pregnant now she will be if you let them alone! She may not be pregnant but if she is she should be just fine. But please keep the male away unless you want a lot of trouble! Is the male her brother??they must be kept apart. Can you rehome your male and get her a female friend? I’m confused as to why you have a male female pair.
i wish i have that animal someday cause it snd very cute
Watching this video in preparation for our own babies! They’re coming any day now, it’s our ridgeback girl Punky’s first (and last) litter with two little beans
Aw congratulations 🎉
I remember when my Cookie had 5 crumbs. 4 boys, 1 little runt girl. We kept the little girl with her momma, but we sent the boys away because didn’t want more, lol. What an amazing experience. ☺️
Haha five crumbs! Not chocolate chips?
They are just so freakin adorable when they’re babies!!! So short and stubby❤❤
Bless mama 🐹💕💗🥰
An adorable mama with adorable babies, you're so sweet with them!
My guinea pig is pregnant and you can feel the babies kicking. We had xrays and the dr said it looks like 3 babies. She said within the next week or less (by Sunday, today is Tuesday) she will give birth. Can anyone tell me the signs when she is within 1-3 hours of birth?
She will not want to eat, she will lay in one place and pant. When it starts she may squeak and turn in circles. Princess had to run across the cage dragging baby #1 out, he was so big. I didn’t post that! Honestly it’s hard to tell because Princess lay around panting a lot the last few days before birth. Our vet saw the babies on Xrays she gave birth a week later.
When she’s nursing it’s a good idea to feed her veggie baby food mixed with critical care. Princess has two feedings of 10 to 15 ml each time. Those babies are hungry! Also vitamin C supplement.
Kaye's Guinea Pigs oh okay thank you! Yeah, she’s still eating but she is hiding a lot! She looks like she’s about to pop so I’m thinking within 3 days or less. The dr said she saw 3 babies on the X-ray
The Accounting Guy be prepared for four... that’s what doc said about Iris. (3 babies )They were exactly right about Princess. I was happy there were just two, although they are really big!
Kaye's Guinea Pigs I’m really wanting the birth to happen when I’m home. She is becoming more still and eating very little now. She is hiding more as well. I saw a little movement on her lower end close to exit. I’m not sure how much longer she has but I really hope it’s soon. She is also being unusually quiet and not chirping
I’m glad I watched this because I’ve been so nervous about when my guinea pig has to give birth, but this made me a little less nervous! Anyways she is a great mommy!❤️❤️ I also love how she’s trying to tend to all of them at once.
Hi! Always glad to help and answer any questions you have. Iris was an experienced mama. I still have Poppy and Parsley.
She will lay around a lot more. When it is time she will start to turn in circles and squeak. At that point she’ll be having her babies. Feed her lots she needs it. When my rescue Piggies were pregnant or nursing I fed them critical care mixed with sweet potato baby food at least 30 mL a day.
🐹🐹🐹🐹👍😍😍😍😎😃
My Guinea pigs are like my kids😊
Amazing they can hold such big babies inside.
So nice mommy you are now 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
My piggie is due and day now she’s so big it’s her first pregnancy we thought she was a boy when we got this video had prepared me for her birth thx so much
Please let us know when she has the babies! Paw prayers to all of you!
Kaye's Guinea Pigs she had 4 or more I’m not shore babies there so cute
Panda Corgi Congratulations!!
It’s funny cuz I was at my grandmas house swimming and I told her that when I come home I would come home to babies and I came home And the was 3 babies and we got to see the runt being born
absolutely amazing to watch their soooo all gorgeous and the mother is great lol xxx bless u all and the piggy also lol xxx
Aw thanks
That looked like a “hole-ripper!” Dag, I would’ve squeaked too.
It was
My guinea pig has been making these movements:( I don't know if she's pregnant or not and it sounds like she's in pain too and I'm worried does anyone know what it means and it looks like a cat making throw up movements
Sorry I didn’t get back to you right away. What has happened? Has she had babies? Have you taken her to the vet? Please let us know.
My female is pregnant at 8 month old .. im so scared 😂 i know a few things but im scared she will have a complication 🫠
She should be just fine. I recommend getting some critical care powder and mix a tablespoon of that with a container of sweet potato baby food and some water. Feed her like 10 mL a day you can get needle less syringes at Walgreens for free. After she has the babies give her as much as she wants and this will help her to produce good milk. You can also give her liquid vitamin C, one ml per day: Child life liquid vitamin C on Amazon.
This was very interesting to see. I’m nervous if my guinea pig is pregnant lol
Has your sow been with a boar?
So adorable 🥰
What kind of guinea pig was the mother guinea pig
She was an American calico piggie with some silkie too.
So soon human society?
At least one month with their mother 😢
Noooo! I was saying that four other piggies were ready to go to Humane Society. Not these babies.
we ended up keeping two and two went to a friend. Baby boars can impregnate their mom or sisters at age three weeks.
It’s 2024 we still have Poppy.
This is so beautiful 💕
What a joyous occasion! And a lovely jingle to welcome these babies to the world! Beautiful video. ❤
i remember so beautiful she looks exactly like my squeakers same colors on her back and but i wish i could send you a picture of my squeakers, 😊
I wish you could too
@@kayesguineapigs thank you 🙏
Lol the two in the video from the very start look EXACLTY like my but mine arent the fluffy kind
How are they doing now? If you still have them can we have an update?
I still have Parsley, the only boy. My friend has Poppy. Petunia was rehomed, I don’t know how she is. Sadly, Piper and Iris passed away.
@@kayesguineapigs may piper and iris fly high 💗🕊🕊💗
Congratulations Iris! (Even though I’m like 2 yrs late!) how are they now do you know?
I have two of the litter still, Parsley (boy) and Poppy. Piper and Iris have sadly passed away. I don’t know about Petunia.
@@kayesguineapigs Hi so I was talking to you through another comment I think and I told you mine was pregnant well she had a baby boy and a girl my friend who’s had way more experience with sexing them than me said that he was a girl well I trusted her as I diddnt really know what I was doing with sexing young pigs well it turned out he was a boy and got the mum pregnant again.... 🥲🧐
Also I want to say we sadly had to put one of ours down on the weekend
Oh I’m so sorry I can’t heart that. Paw prayers. That’s awful.
@@kayesguineapigs it was quite sad for us we noticed she was struggling to have her baby’s (she was two and we got her when she was pregnant) we took her down and the town vet was closed! Then we called another they were open but didn’t do guinea pigs. So we ended up going to unique pet vet and they said that her babies were probably dead already and because of her age it was best to just put her down otherwise it was going to cost $1700 to get the removal of the uterus or it was $2500 for them to keep her uterus in there we decided we just put her down because she had lived an okay length life and she was kind of having trouble anyways like and she was kind of always even just after we just got her she was kind of having trouble walking but she was fine nothing wrong with her she was just getting old like that not even older for a guinea pig but she just acted like seven or something
@@Jess._.Equine13 you did the right thing. I’m sorry for your loss.
How is this “yucky”
I have to warn people with possible weak stomachs. There is blood.
@@kayesguineapigs oh yeah
I have a question. My guinea pig is going to have pups soon and I don't know if I should leave her hut in the cage while she gives birth or take it out. When I got her about 60 days ago they said she was a young male, and they had her in the male cage. Well they were wrong and now I'm going to be a guinea pig Grama and I don't know what to do. I've been watching all the videos I can find but nobody says anything about a gut being in the cage. I would really appreciate some help. Thank you
As long as it’s a good size she can give birth in there. I was home when my rescue piggies gave birth, so took the house out to film. They squeak and turn in circles during labor. Seemed to like more room. But after pups are born they like a nice sized hidey.
@@kayesguineapigs oh thank you. It has a small opening so I think I'll take it out until she has them
Do you know the signs she is going to go into labor?
@@shannonwiese5889 Yes laying around a lot so I spread plenty of hay and pellets around so she can eat while she’s laying down she will rest a lot
@@kayesguineapigs she has been very snuggly. She is on my lap right now eating her veggies
Nice vid. Glad all four babies survived the birth.
I'm really scared for my guinea pig, she is pregnant and I read it is common that they die or the babies die..
How old is she? Has she had babies before? As a Christian I do pray for my piggies. That helps. I also took them to the vet to see how many babies. That is a bit pricey. But I’m glad I did.
Give her vitamin C too. One ml a day.

@@kayesguineapigs I'm not sure how old she is because I got her from my aunt, but I am guessing she is 6 or 7 months old, this is her first pregnancy tho. Thank you for the helpful info, and for replying back!
Ok, so that was amazing...I just have to find out. What to feed my pregnant GP. I think she’s pregnant but the vet will inform me in a week...I just got her from another home for my bored guineapig who is a girl as well so it’ll be an adventure. Lol
I recommend Oxbow hay and pellets. I fed my pregnant sows critical care mixed with sweet potato baby food (one container with a heaping tablespoon of critical care and some water to make one cup.). One of my sows was underweight so she ate 40 to 50 mls per day (10-15 ml at each of up to four feedings a day). If your sow is normal weight, 20 ccs a day is good. Also, liquid vitamin C one ml per day. Continue to do this after the babies are born to help her milk production. Then she can have 40-50 ccs;(mls) each day she will be hungry when she’s nursing.
Iris was a pro mama. Mocha needed a little help;I put her babies under her. They began to nurse and her mama instincts kicked in. She was a great mama after that. Princess was a pro too. I have playlists of all three.

My Guinea pig is going to have her baby’s in around 12 days so any of you know how to catch the birth? I’m going to set up a web cam and I sleep next to her but I’ve sent to catch the birth x
I’d say you’ve done all you can.
I love them so much 💖
Nicebsinging
Nice vid.
Adorable 🥰
C'est génial
I've had guinea pigs but never bred them, I didn't realize the babies would be so big.
We didn’t breed her, she was a pregnant rescue piggie. We don’t breed.
I rescued I pregnant guineapig im a bit scared for her :/
I had two females checked and it turned out they were not pregnant! Had yours been seen by the vet? But if she is, I’ll be glad to answer any questions you have.
She is so caring ❤❤
Hi, how old was the mom when she had the cavies
I don’t remember as she was a rescue. They were her third and last litter.
Do you bathe them after born
No the mama takes care of all the cleaning.I would never bathe tiny piggies. If they needed it I’d take them to the vet!
