New Born Pup
Yesterday I purchased two males from a farm that, due to covid had to find new homes for their huge herd. I've been told both guinea pig are around 5 months although Elvis is significantly larger than Bob. Although they both seemed to be living harmoniously since we got them home, once they were put outside in a run, an argument began over the piggie igloo (it looked like) and a full blown battle ensued. Resulting in Bob being badly injured and having to seperate them. We will introduce them again tomorrow and hope for the best. I have the option of returning Elvis back to the farm and finding a more compatible companion for Bob, we don't want to, but we don't have the space for another hutch. Should I hope they will get on or look into another avenue. My 5 year old son saw the fight and was very upset by it and we want to try and avoid further injury to the pigs and upset to my son. Anyone's help or advice would be gratefully appreciated as in an ideal world we would keep both Bob and Elvis as they are so beautiful. Tia.
