Our 3 girls are about 10 weeks old. They live in our bedroom (at least until the weather is warm) and so I see a lot of them at night when i go to bed with a book.
Every night around 11:15 they go mental. It is hilarious to watch. They talk to each other with assorted squeaks and sounds, run around their home at top speed, popcorn all over the place, knock stuff over, fight over fresh veg hanging down for them to nibble on and generally act so full of zip I put down my book and watch them instead.
Every night. At the same time.
Is this usual? When I'm upstairs at other points throughout the day I don't see anything like this level of activity from them.
NB - they leap and twitch like they have been stung by a bee or are having some sort of seizure - leaping right up in the air. That is popcorning, right? And it does mean they're happy, doesn't it?
 
Sounds like very happy piggys indeed! That is exactly what popcornng is!

Mine have their moments but they're getting older now so its not as regular. x
 
This is completely normal, my 3 do it when I'm in the room (which is why yours might be doing it) as their so happy as they know they're going to fed and be brought out for a cuddle! They sound lovely and happy piggies! :(|)
 
:(|) Otherwise known as the 'zoomies' x)
My girls often do it early evening - sends me cross eyed to see who's chasing who rolleyes
My boys are too lazy now, just manage the occasional popcorn but it's their way of expressing happiness :(|)
 
Frazzle has a daily mad moment. First guinea pig to ever do it that I've had, but George has done it too.

This is an old video of Frazzle from before he had the snip and moved in with Annie
