Ukuzala i-Guinea Pigs
Ukuvuna izingulube ze-guinea akunzima kepha ukwazi ukuthi ukuzalela kubaluleke kangakanani ekusindeni kokuhlwanyela kanye nezingulube.
Nini ukuzobeletha i-Guinea Pigs
Ingulube yesifazane idinga ukuvuthwa ngokocansi ukuze ibele kodwa futhi ayikho endala kakhulu ukuzala. Lokhu kuvumela iwindi elincane kakhulu uma ungafuni ukuba nesigaba se-cache (C-isigaba) esenziwe emhlwanyeni ukuze uthole izingane (ngithemba ukuthi lokhu akusilo isifiso sakho!).
Izingulube zaseGuinea zivuthiwe ngokobulili njengoba zincane njengenyanga eyodwa. Nakuba kungabalulekile kakhulu ukuba ingulube yesilisa ibe nesikhathi esithile ngesikhathi sokubeletha, owesifazane udinga ukuba ngaphansi kwezinyanga ezingu-10 ubudala (ezingeni eliphezulu) ukuze akwazi ukubeletha ngokwemvelo. Ukuzala ngokweqile emva kwezinyanga ezinhlanu noma eziyisithupha ubudala kuyingozi kakhulu ekuhlwanyeleni kusukela ekupheleni kwezinyanga ezingu-10, kanti ngezinye izikhathi ngaphambili.
UkuGestation kwePig Guinea
Umhlwanyela ukhulelwe izinsuku ezingu-59-72 (cishe izinyanga ezimbili) futhi ngokuvamile unama-piglets angu-3 (nano-17 alotshiwe - ama-yikes!).
The Piglets
Into engiyintandokazi ephelele ngezingulube ze-Guinea iwukuthi ngokungafani nezinye izinduku, izingane zabo zizalwa kuqala. Lokhu kusho ukuthi banamazinyo, uboya, i-squeak futhi bagijima nxazonke njengabantu abadala uma bezalwa. Bayancelisa ezinsukwini ezimbalwa zokuqala ukuze bathole i-colostrum kodwa badle ukudla okukhulu kwezingulube, njenge-hay, ngemva nje kokuzalwa.
Izinkinga zokukhulelwa
Uma ubelethwe izinyanga ezingu-5-6, unethuba elihle lokukhulelwa okujwayelekile kanye nenqubo ye-birthing.
Kodwa uma ubelelwa kamuva ekuphileni, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhethe noma ngengozi, cishe kuzodingeka ube nesigaba c esenziwe ngokuhlwanyela kusukela ukushicilela kwakhe kuhlangene ukuze kutholakale izingulube.
I-hypocalcemia (i-calcium ephansi), i-toxemia (eclampsia), i-mastitis, ne-proterine ye-prolapse ngokuvamile ibonakala ekuhlwanyeleni okukhulelwe.
Ngakho-ke, kubalulekile ukuqapha izitobe, izingulube, kanye nomsebenzi wengulube yakho bese uthola ukuthi uhlolwe yi-vet wakhe ngesikhathi ucabanga ukuthi kukhona okungalungile.
