New Born Pup
I have two young Guinea Pigs, one boy and one girl, and two newly adopted older girl Guinea Pigs. they live in the same enclosure, and I am just wondering if what I am seeing is normal herd behavior or if it is a cause for worry. The young boy rumble struts a lot. Him and one of the older girls will sometimes teeth chatter at each other. The older girls will butt their heads at the younger Guinea Pigs (primarily the girl) to get them out of hiding spots or to make them move while they are feasting on hay. The younger girl will "scream" somewhat when this happens although it never seems like they are attacking one another. Lastly, today the younger boy and girl got in a little tussle and wrestled a little, however there was no screeching or biting. I would say for the majority of the time the herd is peaceful. Are my Guinea Pigs okay? And can they be happy living together? Also, I am in my room pretty much 90% of the day due to the virus so I can watch them pretty closely.
