Is your cage big enough? Boys need a lot of room. Two of everything too. Neutering does not change their behavior.

:agr: bigger cage is your first thing to try. And may i ask, when you bought them, were they together. Just thinking, if you bought them from seperate places you have to try and bond them first in a neutral territory like on a big fleece on the floor with no scent there already from any of them.

I think your sister is thinking more about behaviour in dogs and assuming its the same for guinea pigs.

Show us a pic of the cage. Almost all pet shops sell cages advertised 4 for guinea pigs but they are not big enough at all. I'm not trying to say you havnt got a big enough cage, just want to help you work this out

How many sections long by how many wide is it? We are just trying to visualise your cage to help you. We don't want to criticise. This is a non judgemental forum and we are all here to help each other. You have asked for our help and that is what we wish to give you.
