Pig in heat for days

[JenniPigi]

I can always tell when my guinea pig moomin is in heat, because she gets annoyed with my other pig, rumble strutting all the time and chasing her etc. The problem is she does this for more than a day, often for a few days she has random episodes of rumble strutting (which I've never seen her do when she's not in heat), I'm worried something's wrong with her? I don't know if it's normal behaviour to be antsy for a little while after heat is over? Thank you.

How old is she?

When sows are in season you will tend to see the signs and behaviours for a few days at a time - leading up to it and then the short time she is actually in season.

It’s only if it goes on for much longer - seemingly like she is constantly in season that it can be a sign of ovarian cysts in a sow 2 years or older.

If you are worried then do see a vet.

Thank you for your answer, I think then it's just normal signs of heat as she's only about five months old.
