Hello 👋

So upon having a couple extra additions to my herd of 4 now turned 6, how do I know that everyone is fitting in? I’m not seeing them groom each other however there really isn’t any fights. There is the odd tiff that only lasts a couple seconds and that is it. All piggies are maintaining weight and newbies are putting it on. Does that mean that the herd is working out the dynamics and so far so good?

Thank you.

Hi

This sounds normal to me. :tu:
 
Hello. I think it is safe to say that you have a happy herd of 6 :D if they wasn’t getting on, you would know by now. Not all guinea pigs groom each other and so long as there’s no obvious fighting, I do not think you have anything to worry about x
Thank you 😍
