boars and sows

So I have a general question that I need help with. My wife and I have five bonded girls that have lived together for about a year. We just recently lost one of our girls, and we ended up getting a couple boys at the pet store. This was a mistake that the pet store sold us three boys that all...

I currently have 2 male guinea pigs in a 8 by 10 feet enclosure and they are allowed to free roam whenever they want. There are 2 female guinea pigs near my animal shelter and I’m willing to adopt them and give all of them a bigger space. However I’ve read that 2 males with 2 females wouldn’t...

Me and my partner were wondering whether it would be possible to neuter our two boys (Captain and Jaffa) to be placed with our two females (Corky and Pickle). Or is it a definite no no for two males to be placed with females.. I hope someone can help us!

Hi everyone, I didn't see a thread exactly like my situation so thought I would post one. I have a neutered male and he was living with my 3 older females which he bonded well with and they lived together for a week. Suddenly they began to fight, my male didn't fight back but 2 of my girls were...
