How much food do the babies need to eat and when? Are they happy with just the milk for now? And when do they start eating properly? Sorry for all the questions, just want to make sure I'm doing all I can to help peppa
 
I think they can eat normal gp food within a few days or something. I don't think you need to do anything different as long as they have good hay and food. I could be wrong, I just remember when I was little one of our piggies we bought was pregnant and we didn't know untill we saw the baby at the back of the hutch one day and she was eating and drinking just like her mum.

Hopefully someone with more experience will come along shortly.
 
They can eat normal guinea pig food, please give them some alfalfa hay and both mummy and babies will need this to built up there calcium levels.

You can soften some pellets in boiled water, (leave to cool,) then give it to them I'm a bowl. Babies love that (or so ive heard. :)) )
