Just got a new guinea pig. I fell in love with him. GORGEOUS, a baby face a little chubby. absolutely gorgeous.

anyways..i put him in [think were gonna name him/her pumpkin] and squirt the runt kept mounting kept mounting kept mounting kept mounting. eventually peanut got annoyed and was trying to get him to go away and peanut wouldnt leave pumpkins side. looked more like defending. they get along fine btw [peanut and pumpkin].

id hear that noise that meant they were annoyed and i thought it might be coming from pumpkin but they went into the new house i just bought them (more like chased in) and id hear high pitched squealing AND that noise.

i took pumpkin out and tryed to double check for a penis and i could NOT find one..but that doesnt always mean anything. i pressed on the tummy a few times and rubed the tummy just doing a bunch of things to make sure I'm getting it right and nothing came out.

any advice? =/

btw. they are seperated at this time. probably will never play together again unless she is indeed a he. haha
 
i forgot to mention, before any of the mounting, on the trip home i had my thoughts that maybe pumpkin WAS a girl because she was sooo friendly. kept licking me right away. none of my other guinea pigs are so friendly and snuggly and give so many licks. just a completely different attitude.
 
yep, they are all boys, 3 of them i know are boys.

peanut
squirt
goober

and now there is pumpkin and this is the mountee with no sign of any boy parts =/
 
if you look without pressing,do you see a "Y" or an "i" shape? can you feel a ridge above where the hole is? when i got my sonny, i didn't know how i could ever be confused! they're so different, even at 8weeks old. sorry to be crude, but does s/he have balls? or are the parts definately different? could you post pigtures? one of us would know on here
 
no balls. nothing. yeah i will try to get a picture up ASAP.
and they do look a little differant, i mean it looks differant to me
 
you definitely can see balls! i think you have yourself a beautiful little sow!
 
huh...well i know the rest i can tell they are boys from seeing something funny.

but pumpkin doesn't have that. let me take a picture in a minute.

ok while taking the picture i think that yes indeed...there is a Y.
here are two..i took with my cellphone i think they are clear enough..if not let me know and ill use my camera.

this one is kind of blurry.

i hope your right, i cant help but think pumpkin is a girl now too. i think id be upset if i found out she was a boy.

shes so perfect.
 
yep thats a girl, she might be pregnant now, sadly, but if she is we're all here to help :)
 
can you tell she might be pregnant just by the way that looks?

she hasnt been eating too much just nibbling here and there, and not alot of water drinking at all. she was constantly hiding in her hideout, so i just took it away this morning so she could actually explore the cage.

alot of vitamin C if she is pregnant
 
She'll start to look 'round' or bulging at the sides. Towards the end of the pregnancy you'd be able to feel the bubs moving around.
 
aww,pumpkin's a girl! does she have a white "plug" in her genitals? that's a sign.. and a shape like the above mentioned x
 
oh jeeze....
when we FIRST picked her out i said awww she has butt fluffies!

my dog used to have white fur that would stick out farther that you could pull out and were very soft.

I'm not sure if she has it now...

but would her being pregnant make her not want to drink/eat?
 
No, other way around. When mine was pregnant and I didn't realise, she would wheek all the time for food.
 
she might not be pregnant then because she BARELY touches her food. had a drink of water maybe once that i have seen. water hasnt gone down at all.

hasnt eaten much. =[
 
Yup, that's a little girl! How long ago was she in with the boys? Signs of pregnancy don't always appear right away. She may all of a sudden start eating and drinking more.
 
well just got her maybe 3 days ago?
and at the petstore she was in with 6 other boys.

maybe a few days that was going on.
