Pregnant Sow ( Female Guinea Pig)2007-11-24 22:14:39

if you can fit two fingers between the sow's pelvic bone how much longer will she deliver

Answers:

Well that's a good sign, atleast her pelvic bones haven't fused yet. That usually happens as the female gets older, making it impossible for her to give birth naturally. Two fingers means it should have been a few hours. But seeing as you posted this five hours ago, hopefully everyone's arrived safely and is healthy. Guinea pig pregnancies are very serious and are quite dangerous for mom and babies. They're born with lots of hair and eyes open. They should begin eating their veggies within a few days.

Well, the gestation is about 63 days for a sow so if she around her due date her pelvis should get wider. If it's that wide I'd say she doesn't have too long to go maybe a couple hours at most but if she's over 7 months and this is her first time you'll want to make sure the delivery goes well, she might need an emergency C-Section. Hope that helps! ;)
