Knowing when it’s time to potentially split them up

My guinea pigs keep squabbling, one is humping the other, cornering him, following him around and rumble strutting , is it time to break them up or see how they get on? I just don’t want it to result in a fight and they keep teeth chattering at one another and standing off

So far, it is still well within limits. You'll know when the level of tension rises; it is unmistakable!

Have a divider at the ready if necessary. I had a couple of spare C&C grids cable-tied to one side of the cage and folded along the back of the cage, so I only had to pull them across and tie them to the other side while Nye was going through the worst of the teenage months.

The dom one just urinated on phyliss my sub boy, think maybe that’s a sign on dominance ? I’m just worried about leaving them alone together whilst I’m out, do you think they will be ok?
