Whee did a post first thing this morning telling you of the birth of the babies. The photos weren’t brilliant but a bit later on in the day some more photos were taken. Enjoy!

Oh they are just so adorable!!!! Are they all doing well? Mom and babes??
Hugs, Sammy
They appear to be doing so far, thankfully! They all had their first taste of hay early this morning when Mum ventured from the hut to eat. Everything seems to be okay and I hope it stays that way.

Glad to hear they are doing well so far. Have you weighed them yet?
xxxx
Not yet but am planning to do so very soon, some time today. I’m very worried about stressing them and, or, Mum out but they’re a day old now so weighing them quickly shouldn’t be too much of a worry for her, right?

Handling the babies will not affect their bond in any way. Technically you should weigh them within hours of the birth. It’s the first thing mentioned on that link I sent you promising that it is fine to.
Hope this reassures you

I did read the post but it also says to weigh them between 1-2 days of their birth as they don’t start putting weight on until 3 days. I will be sure to weigh them within the limit. It does reassure me, thank you.

so cute!!! How lucky you all are!!!
Thank you, aren’t they just wonderful?

They are so cute – and they aren’t like newborn baby mousies. They already have fur.
Yes, thankfully little piggies are born with open eyes, functioning ears and fur! They nibble on hay almost straight away. Apparently it’s the equivalent of a human giving birth to a three year old child! No pink hairless beans in the guinea-pig world!

Toooooo cute. I miss babies. They are perfect from the start. Congrats!
Thank you! Aren’t babies just wonderful?
We had 3 babies once. They were so much fun. We ended up giving away the boys and only keep Mom, Dad, and little sister because of the work involved in keeping everyone apart. Love love love
Yeah, it can take up a lot of room! We already have three boys living separately as it is so we won’t be able to keep any boys…
We had ‘delicate’ surgery done on Dad after we found out Mom was prego. He liked his own cage anyway. But boys and girls just don’t mix when they can get prego at 3 weeks old. Very cute though. And Squeeky!!!
Very squeaky indeed!
