Is there a guideline as to what weights guinea's should be?

My 3 are 11 weeks old, the one who i think is pregnant weighs 354g the other two weigh 400g and 338g

Is this normal?
 
If she is pregnant you will see a noticable change from 5 weeks onwards with her weight. :)

Pigs weights can vary as long as they don't loose weight thats the main thing. :)
 
I've got 2 x 11 week old boys and they're a fair bit heavier than your 2 boys. I think mine are just porkers though!
 
Garry and Minty were around those weights at 12 weeks old. They're now a year old and are just over the kilo mark. They're smaller pigs like my 90's pigs Candy and Chocolate were. Ben and Dave on the other hand are porkers...need to weigh them when I get back and see what the difference is!

On 22nd August, this is what they weighed:

Dave - 5 months (20 weeks approx ) - 1025g - 2lb 4oz
Benjamin - 8 1/2 months (34 weeks approx ) - 1225g - 2lb 11oz

Chunky boys!
