I have now got the following; one adult male guinea pig called Henry, 3 female guinea pigs, Ruby, Sadie & Rosiex) Ruby appears to be pregnant and did have long hair according to the previous owners, I'm guessing a peruvian by the sounds of the description of her.
Sadly all four lived in a tiny 2.5 foot indoor cage and the babies sex was "unknown" and none of them had names:( However they all appear to be in pretty good condition and mum is getting lots of veg and care each day as this appears to be a back to back pregnancy mallethead

here they arex)

Do you know the age of the babies - anything over 4 weeks old and they could be pregnant too. If they weigh 300g+ then they should be 4 weeks. Keep a close eye on their weekly weights and if they start to gain 50g+ in a week then pregnancy is likely.

Mum looks to be a peru X, lilac and golden - one of my fav colours.

What a beautiful little family, I hope there are no further pregnancies, they seem to have had a bad enough time of it already. x
 
What a poor, sweet family - I hope that none of the babies is pregnant, too!
 
Just booked them all in at the vets for a check up and I'm going to work something out with sadies extra toe removal, leaving Ruby at home as she's definitely pregnant! Does anyone have any idea's on what colours they all fall into they all have pink eyes x)
 
I was going to rehome them but I have been blown away with their funny little personalities and Ruby is just so trusting second day in and she was squeaking away for her food along with my lot! Sadie has stole my heart she's such a gorgeous piggy even with her extra toe and little rosie is the shy little baby who needs to have more snuggles than all of the other piggies apparently x)
