Flighting

Question
Hi, I have 2 boars, they are about 6 months, the larger one Scuba has started too boss Hercules around, he doesn't always let him get into the bed area or get too the food, is this normal.

Also do guinea pigs like cuddles from their owners?

Answer
Hi Julie

Its normal up to a point. Male piggies always have to decide which is going to be the boss. However, you do need to make sure Hercules gets food, so perhaps put a 2nd bowl in the hutch. If you notice an increase in this behaviour please let me know.

Most, but not all piggies do enjoy being cuddled/petted/played with by us humans. I know mine all love their cuddles. :)
