Hard nudges?

[Lolapola]

Is it normal for Guinea pigs to Nudge other guineas in the face when annoyed,
And when directly in the way, jump up and do a strange, fight-ish ( But not proper fighting) dance? Just a bit worried with my assertive little mammas girl.

No fighting yet, Some squealing, but thats just Christine, she moans alot.
They sleep together, and they snuggle up together, albeit a couple of hard nudges in the face at times.

So is this a worry?

Lola & Friends. :^-

It is dominance behaviour. Most of the squealing is less in pain but in submission.

Here is more about sow behaviour so you can understand better what it going on:

Thanks for the above, and I now realise that this should of been in behaviour. OH well!
