| Gestational Mortality Rate
For the sake of trying to get an accurate count on the number of guinea pigs that die due to pregnancy or birthing complications, I woud appreciate any and all put. There is a lot of outrageous information out there- unbelievable statistics with no backing. Sadly, misinformation gets passed around the internet and eventually accepted as fact. What we would like to do is create a basis of fact in which a true statistic can be derived.
So, we want to gather as much information on GP pregnancies as possible- successful and unsuccessful.
Whether it was an intentional breeding or otherwise, the following information will be most helpful:
FOR EACH SEPERATE PREGNANCY- -
* * * * * *
(SURVIVING: )
Your name: (first name only acceptable)
Country of origin:
Age of sow:
Number of offspring:
Number of surviving offspring to age of weaning:
* * * * * *
(UNSURVIVING: ) Only for sows whose death was pregnancy or birhting related:
Your name: (first name only acceptable)
Country of origin:
Age of sow:
Believed/Known cause of death:
Other possible health issues:
Surving offspring if any:
Surviving offspring to weaning if any:
Other important information:
NOTE: This data is not intended to be used to condone breeding in any way. If you wish to keep your information more anonymous, then feel free to email me- your name will not be used- and is only intended for the purpose of sorting out possible double posts as this questionaire has been posted on several different forums.
