I can answer every question anyone has! I am always willing to hit the books for other owners! I and my husband between me have 6 guinea pigs and one expecting, that we intend to keep 2 of. I can help with idle questions, everyday problems to serious health problems but I always sugget seeing a vet!

Experience
I have had 14 guinea pigs in my life with more to come. I have volunteered at the local shelter just to work with the small animals on a weekly basis and I have been to countless vets to soak up there advice, as well as looking in my 50 something books on guinea pigs. I know almost everything I can wrap my head around about guinea pigs! Sometimes my husband, who is an exotic bird vet/guinea pig fanatic helps me with the questions to!

I teach local classes for advanced creative writing and literature for teens.

Awards and Honors
I have had my writing published in the paper for the fourtenth time about animal pet care facts. Nothing big, just me and a few other writers.

Guinea Pigs - Possible pregnant guinea pig

Question

ringo

My husband and I have a female piggie, Penny and a male, Ringo. he let them both outside for just a few minutes and he was watching them so they wouldn't "get to it". The phone rang so he did take his eye off them for a little bit. When he picked up Penny, he noticed there was some white liquid on her anus/vagina, so we aren't sure if Ringo got to her... and if she is pregnant, do I have to help her deliver?

Answer
Hello Carla!
Simple form: They had pig sex. No you don't have to help her.
Long form: That was defiantly male 'discharge'. Unfortunately while you were on the phone they were on each other. Now, myself being asked many questions daily about 'Piggy Sex and Sexuality' know that she is probably not pregnant but it has happened before. Depending on how long your call was, they could have had sex up to 7 times. Guinea pigs are actually more sexually active than rabbits, but have a higher chance of dieing during labor. Labor, a beautiful thing. Also something Penny will want to do herself. Unlike me or any other normal human female, she will have to be separated from Ringo during and after labor as she will be VERY VERY horny and possible hump anything that moves. Have a vet number ready just in case of complication.
