Question
sorry to bother u but i have 2 male guinea pigs that keep humping each other i just wanted to know if that is normal. i hope to here from u soon the last person i ask a question did not respond thanks melissa

Answer
Hi Melissa

Don't be sorry to bother me, its what I'm here for. :)

The behaviour you describe is basically one pig establishing dominance over the other. This will usually stop after 2 weeks or less so don't worry.

If they start to harm each other, this is a different matter, let me know if that happens.
