Turtles
Junior Guinea Pig
Sometimes I wonder, other times there's no doubt in my mind. I go sit with the girls at random times when i'm studying these days, and sometimes they are just the darnest cutest piggies and other times i wanna come in between them.
Important to not: Never has blood been drawn!
From the start i could tell Panda was the boss, she was a week or 2 older, much braver. Lemon the scardy cat was alright with that. They've always been fine until recently. Today I observed much "harsher" behaviour than usual.
Everytime Panda comes even near Lemon, lem just start squicking, pretty high but nothing bad. There were 2 reactions either panda ignored her and kept running along the cage, or she went in for contact, if that happened Lem would almost immediately turn her butt towards Panda and usually start squeaking very high pitched. Pan either decides that's enough or pushes a bit on and then you could say there is "fighting" but idk, it's hard to describe, they let each other alone pretty darn quickly. During all this pan is kinda 'humming' (this is the translation i got whatever) it's a very low vibrating sound. More like a growl (?) but at the same time, they keep pulling towards each other even though they got plenty of space and 3 different feeding places so it's not like they HAVE to go look for contact everytime yet they will always eat from the same bowl, always try to fit in a way to small hidey for the both of them (with 2 exits of course) and if they're scared or something strange happens they are practically on top of eachother and neither make a sound.
Idk what to think of their behaviour anymore to be honest, I'll deffo keep an eye out in case blood gets drawn, but apart from that, what do you guys think, are these 2 fine or should i worry ?
