fighting males

Greetings! I am new to this forum so please forgive me for any mistakes with my posts:) I have three male guinea pigs; Fred, Junior, and Nubs(he is missing a foot hence the name). Recently, Nubs has been getting himself into some fights with my other boys, resulting in bloody wounds. I took my...

We bought two male 8 month old pigs around two months ago as they were adoption ones in Pets At Home. Up until now they’ve been fine; cuddling and playing. Yesterday morning we woke up to find one (Blueberry) hiding in the hay rack away from the other (Mr Muffin). I took him out to find out his...

Hello, in mid July 2018 we decided to get Guinea Pigs for the first time. We went to 2 separate people who were selling their newborns. Both pairs between 8-9 weeks old. We brought a pair of long hair male brothers from some guinea pig breeders and named the back haired Dave, and the white head...

my two boys pickle (12 months) and sparky (12 months) we’re bonded really well when I got them. Ever since my desexed female (mocha, 6 months) arrived my boys have gotten aggressive to eachother. Constantly they would chitter their teeth and attack eachother. To me sparky is protective over...

Hi guys, I’m a first time guinea pig owner, and am really needing advice on what to do with my boars. So my little brother lost interest in his guinea pig (it’s mate died shortly before) and I took on ownership. Mako is about a year old, and I bought 2 four month old boars as companions. I did...

I got two piggies, the oldest is a big boy named Lalo. The other one is relatively young, named Harold. I heard that older male guinea pigs like younger ones better because they can easily establish dominance with little to no effort. They don't feel threaten. I got a big cage that doesn't have...
