Junior Guinea Pig
Hello. I just adopted a 2 month old boar from Petsmart for my bereaving Truffle a few days ago. Very sadly his bonded brother of 6 years passed away last week.
I am still grieving but he was just lost and alone so I got him a companion. He is so happy with some company, but Comet is challenging him and humping him. He scratched back of his ear. I disinfected with solution from Vet … and I trimmed his nails, but I’m not sure what to do. Never had a baby before. He’s harmless . … Now… but what about 6 months from now? Otherwise they sleep together eat together play together… so there’s no fighting…. I’m worried for future. I also am checking his back for scratches.
At what age would they potentially fight? What signs should I be aware of?
Thank you
