HELP, I'm not sure what to do. I have 2 3 year old girls and they have lived together since babies. On Saturday one started to be very aggressive to the other one and resulted in a torn ear. There has been a lot of teeth chattering and chasing and the one that has been bullied seems so traumatised, she is so quiet and squeaks when you pick her up. I have now seperated them as I am so worried. Any ideas on what I could do, should I now keep them apart?
 
Usually its best to separate once blood has been drawn. You may be able to rebond them again but I will let someone with more expertise advise you ;)
 
You can try to reintroduce them in a neutral area (like a bathtub with a towel for grip). Be on standby with a towel if there is another fight.

If it doesn't work out, unfortunately, you will have to keep them separate. Girls don't fall out with each other not as often as boys, but it can happen. Your aggressive girl may have just decided that her companion is not part of "us" anymore, and there is nothing you can do!

Have you got the space for two lots of piggies?
