The gestation period varies between individuals and the average litter size is about 3-4 babies. Usually, the first breeding results in a small number of the babies born. The young are born large and fully furred, and can walk about. The babies have teeth and open eyes at this time. Although the babies can eat solid food and drink water from a container, they should be allowed to nurse their mother for at least 2 weeks. As they reach sexual maturity early, the animals of different sexes should be separated. Adult cavies' weight ranges between 1 and 3 pounds and grow to 10-15 inches long.
