My male guineapig got into a cage with 2 females for about 3 minutes. Is there a high chance of pregnancy. Im so scared because I have a 5 year old, Sora. If she is pregnant its almost certain I will lose her. How long does it take for the male to "do his thing"?

Seconds. But if she wasn't in heat, it won't matter if he "did his thing." Sows only come in heat for a day or so every 14-16 days, so the chances aren't high that she's pregnant.

But if you have males and females in cages next to each other, you need a lid on the female side. A determined male can push up the lid on his own side, but can't lift the lid on the girls' side.

He is actually in his own cage across the room. My cousin was holding him, which she does often. When she went to put him back, she put him in the girls cage, getting confused about where he goes. I will be sure to keep a watchful eye next time. Thankyou for your help. Im still worried but you provided me some peace.
