Description
| - The aim of this study was to examine selected factors that influence the behaviour of female domestic guinea pigs (Cavia aperea f. porcellus) during giving birth to the young. Sows do not treat up to 45% of the born young that subsequently die due to asphyxiation in embryonic covers. Following determinants were observed: sex of the young, birth weight, condition of the young (alive/dead), litter size, season, daytime. In the overall evaluation, a relation between the alive/dead young and other observed values was assessed using Pearson's chi-squared test statistical method. A statistical significance was unambiguously proved in the case of daytime, which clearly reflected the influence of light and darkness on a loss of maternal behaviour and instinctive urge of female guinea pigs. Another parameter in which statistical significance was clearly proved was litter size. Some sows do not manage to clean all their young after giving birth to a large litter, they are more exhausted and the impact is fatal on the newborn young. The ethological observation has also led to a finding that the females devote special care to their firstborn young and neglect the others, this phenomenon also often leads to the late rupture of embryonic covers and suffocation of the young. Birth weight of newborns is another indicator that has an effect on mortality of the young at birth. It is closely associated with litter size. The statistical significance was not proved in the other evaluated indicators, such as sex and season. In conclusion, the study has proved a relationship between selected parameters which can have an effect on the behaviour of female domestic guinea pigs during labour with an impact on giving birth to the live young.
