Looks like a boy to me but I'm no expert never seen a lady guinea pig fingers crossed you've got it right
 
I've got girl & boys & he looks like a boy.
 
Edited:

Hate to throw some controversy into the equation but I think it could be a girlie. I think I boy would have a more rounded bit at the top whereas that piggy is pointy. It doesn't look like either of my 2 boys.

Don't take my word for it though - I have only seen boy bits and not girlie ones. Will tag @Wiebke for an accurate answer!

She is about 3/4 months and now I know for sure that she is a she OMG :hb: I am so stupid! I didn't really check her too much before because my breeder told me she was a boy! And I don't know how I didn't realize the attempt to mate before by Flynn! Although I haven't had him long
 
Hmmm, i have 5 girls and a boy and it much more like my sows than my boar... he has a very round circle at the top which protrudes a small bit... but I'm no expert sorry!
 
If she/he is 3-4 months I would say girl as she/he would prob have a more obvious penis by now if a boy. Have a gentle feel of your definate boy above the penis, you should feel a tube like shaft. Gentley press and the penis should pop out. Now try on questionable pig (dont push hard as I have a feeling there will be nothing to pop out). You should be able to see difference that way.

Dont beat yourself up about making the mistake, its not always easy to tell and you pig does have a bit of an "i" shape about her!

I did it to Flynn because he is younger and his p popped right out but nothing on her because she is a she! And then I put the two together and Flynn immediately tried to mount her and his p even came all the way out! So I'm sure now....but the question is how do I repair them up...I really don't want any fighting
 
You need to do this when you have a good amount of time available.

Do it in a neutral area ideally somewhere they dont normally go. Take a look in the behaviour and bonding sections there are a lot of good stickies x

Once they seem like they are okay to house together should I make sure to clean out the old bedding before putting them together in the hutch?

Yes give everything a good scrub to eliminate any old piggie smells. If possible move where furniture etc.. is too that way it'll seem like a new hutch not the previous inhabitants space!

W ll do thanks! I have a feeling Caesar is going to be pee-ed off with this new arrangement...I hope he will except Flynn as a roomy tho because I don't want them alone...I'm afraid Caesar won't except Flynn tho...I just know he is going to fight him. Every time it's playtime he runs at him and mounts him!

The key with boys Is to put them together and leave them together unless fighting starts as they need to decide who is boss! I would suggest with your two boys to start with a bath together that way they'll share each others horror and also they'll smell the same.

Just remember to leave it a good few weeks before introducing any hideys with only one exit, make sure you have two bottle two bowls and thst they are at opposite enfs of hutch so one cant hog both x
