| Question about Pets:my guinea pigs are fighting? |
Memphis Gal & Ellen S gave you some very good advice.
Your piggies are going through adolescence & are going to have squabbles as they work out who will be the dominant pig. To help ease through this transitional period (it usually ends by age 9 months. Oh great, right?!) make sure that you have adequate cage space. This way they don't get on each others nerves as much if they have a place to go to call their "own". Two boars should have at least 10 square feet of space (5'x2' cage) and two of everything (pigloos, water bottles, feed dishes, etc.).
If they make it through this period without bloodshed, they'll be buddies for life.
