I just found this chart and thought it could prove helpful to work out when a piggy is due to have her litter     Or here it is as a pdf file if you want to save it to print out gestationcalendar.pdfSource: GPWSpecial thanks to delvillecavies for allowing me to use it here. |

Is it oops sorry I got it from someone who emailed it to me, and then I found it again on pimms-pages. I hope you don't mind me pinching it. It will help others I think so if it's ok by you I would like to keep it up here and give you credit of course Dawn |

No problem, Dawn.
I find it useful and it took me a while to put together so if other people find it's worthwhile then so much the better.
Now, if only I could design something that people would pay lots of cash for, I could retire and spend even more time in the shed!

my guniea pig has just gave birth yesterday the 5th Nov and i got her on the 16 or 17 of sep so she must of been preggers before i got her and not by the boar that was suppoused to be another sow, so a bad breeder then as i asked for 3 girls and found out that they are infact 2 girls and 1 boy, then they started showing signs of pregnancy, the other still hasn't given birth yet though so she may be preggers by the boar that was mis-sexed

Mistakes can be made by anyone but like you say a breeder should have do9ubled checked before rehoming them.

I have been looking at the chart and Blossom and Teddy went together on 26 December so I calculated 10 weeks from then which is tomorrow date the 6th March but but the chart she was due on the 3rd March - She is huge and now I am worrying she is going to have a big litter. Oh I wish she would give birth and put me out of my misery - I am spending too long watching her |

I have learned the more we watch and worry the more they make us wait, LOL!
I just add 10 weeks from the date I either saw the mating or the date when I put them in with the boar. It isn't always accurate since we have no idea when conception actually took place, but that is how I do it.

wow this is Brill - I can plan her next litter to make sure I'm not away. Her babies were born on 13 march so she was mated (Accicdently) 2 Jan - I had one of these when I bred my 1st sow 14 yrs ago and have only just got back into wanting to breed again.
