Hello! I have had a Guinea pig for quite some time now and we recently have pared him with another male, this new male keeps humping my other one and won’t stop! They have been together for a couple days now and it continues. Does anyone know how I can stop it or at least prevent it from happening all the time? Idk if it makes a difference but the one that keeps humping is a little bigger than the other one. Thank you !
 
This is totally normal behaviour. This is how boars show dominance and form a relationship. You are going to see a lot of this behaviour for the next two weeks as it takes that long after the bonding meeting for them to fully form their relationship. It should settle but it will never totally stop as it is just something boars do.
You cannot, nor should you, do anything to stop it

Thank you, do you perhaps know why it is only one doing it? The other only runs away
