    You have to separate boy guinea pigs at 4 weeks of age to keep them from impregnating their mom and sisters.

      You also have only like, 2 days to do it from when you can reasonably tell their sex and between when they become sexually active.

      Make a mistake? Prepare to do it all again in eight weeks with 4-6 more

              I don’t know! I doubt it. The one I had was pretty greasy, but that easily could have been preparation. I didn’t spend much time in the “eat guinea pigs” part of the world, so I only had one.
