New guinea pig introduction behavior

[eclectikelly]

I just got two female guinea pigs (one yesterday and one today). I tried to introduce them today and put them in the same cage after rearranging it, but I'm worried about them getting along. The one seems very scared and will not stop squeaking most of the time. The other, bigger one has shown slightly aggressive behavior, but there seems to have been no biting or bloodshed. Is this normal behavior until dominance is established?

@eclectikelly Yep. They need to determine their hierarchy, to work out who is top pig.
