my Two boys have done nothing but bicker all night! I separated their cage and they kept breaking down the barriers! All I’ve heard all night is growling, teeth chattering, running round their cage, knocking stuff over, squeaking! They’ve had me awake since 4am. They have a love hate relationship, can’t stand eachother but yet can’t be without eachother. Hahaha. I’ve just moved their cage around and thankfully they’ve settled down now. Does anyone else have this problem with male piggies?

How old are they and what size is their enclosure?

While they are like this it is best to remove anything that causes friction. Have you removed any houses with only one exit? Is there more than enough of everything so no fighting eg more than 2 beds/houses?
 
I have two houses one with two entrances and one with just one my enclosure is 140 cm by 63 or something like that. I have two of everything but they want to use the same stuff all time and that’s what’s causing arguments. When I put them in seperate enclosures they call out for eachother and when I seperate the enclosure they manage to get back together. And they’re about 6 months old. They haven’t been like this since January time
 
Sounds like they are entering the hormonal teenage phase. I have never had boars but someone with more experience will be along soon. Generally I think they say don't separate unless they draw blood. All the best to you & your piggies!
