New Born Pup
Hi! We got two new young female guineas on Saturday. Unfortunately, on Monday, one of them had what we think is a miscarriage and was too ill to keep. We got a replacement guinea that day from the group they were from and reintroduced the two. We did this by putting them in two separate areas over night where they could smell each other. Today we put them into a clean run with lots of hay and allowed them to get to know each other. This all went really well and they were snuggling up together in a tunnel after a few hours. However, since we have put them into their hutch, the newer guinea, who is clearly the dominant one, keeps shooing the other one out of the sleeping area. They are both eating and drinking and seem OK, but we're worried that this is bullying behaviour or might escalate. Can anyone give us any advice?
