Do I Separate Them?

[Lolnobyw]

I recently got a New boar to accompany my lone 6 month old one. At first they got along but now they're constantly chattering teeth and fighting. There has been bloodshed and after that incident I separated them but they both started trying to chew through the divider. Each time I separate them they desperatley try to get to one another but when I have them together they try to kill each other . What do I do?:-(

Yes, do not put them back in together once blood is drawn. I am really sorry

Your boys are in the middle of the teenage months; unfortunately, they rather sound like they are one of these bonded pairs that can't live together and can't live apart. I would try to opt for a solution with adjoining pens/cages so they can interact through the bars for mutual stimulation, but have each got their own territory.
It is very frustrating for you, but something that works for a goodly number of forum members' boars.
