Boys fighting

[Miokami]

I don’t know what to do! I have two young males about 4-6 months old, brothers, I just made there cage double in size. They have 2 of everything and I left for work this morning and my boyfriend came home and they started fighting. He’s not sure if blood was drawn between the two, we put a decider in the cage to separate them but they go back at it once it’s removed. The one that’s normally sub is doing the attacks and trying to get threw to his brother. Any idea what I can do to get them to get along again?

Your boys are in the height of their teenage hormones. Please do not try to reintroduce just yet. They may be having a hormone spike so I would check them both over thoroughly for bites or wounds as once blood is drawn it's unlikely they will go back together.
If there are no injuries then leave the divider in for a few days to let them calm down and they can interact through the divider. Once things calm down you can look at trying to reintroduce but this needs to be on neutral ground so not just removing the divider.

Even if following the bonding guidance there is no guarantee of success and once a piggy has decided they cannot live with the other there is going to be no changing that I'm afraid.

I’ve left the divider in place (except to clean under it real quick). My normally sub piggy is chewing at the divider and trying to get at his brother, then gos and does normal piggy things that he’s not really been doing much of lately
