Right sooo my guinea pigs make this low pitched vibrating purrrring noise and move really slowly round eachother and wiggle their bums and then one of them will kick the other with their back legs and then run away very quickly, is this them being playful? I have tow boars xx
 
@Chloegkenny That's their way of telling each other that they really like each other, like REALLY like each other!

My Podrick does it all the time to his cagemate Jon Snow. It occasionally ends with him humping Jon but Jon is usually too fast and runs away.

Ohhh right, they’re brothers and do love eachother they’re always cuddling and fetching eachother veggies. I couldn’t decide whether they were being violent or not haha xx
 
Sounds like rumble strutting to me which is a dominance behaviour my two do it when squabbling over food
 
Rumblestrutting is a piggy way of saying "Look what a big hero I am" or "Look how attractive I am" It is quite normal behaviour.
