QuestionWe bought 2 guinea pigs and at first they seemed to get along just fine. Today, just a few days over 2 weeks that we've had them, I noticed the smaller of the 2 had a wound on his upper back just behind his neck. So, I did a make shift separation in the cage but is this just tough playing? Are there any specific noises they make when they fight? They almost sound like between a purr and a growl? After separating them, they seemed to want to see each other? How can I help them get along?
AnswerHi Corine
Fighting between 2 piggies is actually pretty scarey and savage so if they arent literally tearing shreds off each other then it was probably the routine that 2 males go through to decide which is boss.
Please keep a close eye on them though and let me know any developments.
