How can you tell if a guinea pig is pregnant
Hi,
Pregnancy can be detected by gentle palpation of the uterus. At day 15 of gestation 5mm swellings can be palpated. They are about 15mm by day 35 of gestation. During late gestation you should notice abdominal distention. The gestation length of a guinea pig is 59-72 days.
Thanks,
Dr. Chris
