I bought a neutered male and a female a couple of weeks ago to join my two females.
They have been living side by side with a divider between them. So they can see and smell each other. They have sniffed noses and seen each other. It has been really positive so far. But the new female is still really scared, she darts off the moment she sees me. She is eating out of my hand which is a really good sign.
Do you think they are all ready to bond in neutral territory, or would it be best to leave them for a few weeks so the new Guinea Pigs get use to everything.
Or would the new ones be happier living with two more guinea pigs.
