Junior Guinea Pig
Hi everyone!
So I got Lucy (3 months) as a friend for my neutered boy, Pig (1yr) about 3 weeks ago. The initial introductions went well and it actually seems like little Lucy is becoming the more dominant piggy. She is the one who does the nipping if Pig gets in her face too much, not the other way around. Is it normal/ okay for a younger sow to become the dominant one? She seems to be a tiny ball of sass compared to Pig haha. Pig didn't/ doesn't mount her AT ALL, which I also found a bit weird... But he is an absolute softie and just rumble struts around her a lot. They eat together, sleep close to each other and popcorn around together in the playpen. Basically I'm wanting to find out if this bonding sounds normal or I just have a pair of weirdos on my hands
