Question
i have just brought 2 male guinea pig about 8-9 weeks and the pet shop said i have to get 2 so they can keep each other company. So when i breed my females with them can i get them to breed at this age but when i take 1 male out will the other get lonly.?

Answer
I think they have to be a little bit older to breed but then again you might want to call the pet store where you got them and ask. I am not sure how old they are so I don't know. They will not be lonely by themselves. Give them a lot of love and they should be fine alone!
