Thor & Loki
New Born Pup
Hi All, maybe someone can shed some light...
So I got my two male guineas in December. Since then one of them developed possible ringworm (vet did two tests and both came back negative)..Thor was covered in bald spots which is why we thought ringworm. The two guineas did fight small amounts in their cage..but I thought this was just playful behaviour. I had to separate them because of the possible ringworm. Since then Thor has gained weight.. grown back hair and looks really healthy and happy.
I bought a play pen for them and thought, well it's only been two weeks, I will try and let them into the big play pen and see how they get on. They ended up squaring off and nipping at each other..their hair and body was raised. Neither were backing down and were doing the angry guinea pig noise. I had to take Thor out as he was in complete distress and was sqeaking in a hurt sort of way. I don't know what to do...I can't keep them separated for too much longer as I don't have the actual space or equipment for keeping them separate am I going to have to give Loki away? I don't know what to do. Please help
