Chip and Dale
New Born Pup
My guinea pigs, Chip and Dale, I got them a few years ago and they were a bonded pair. We got them both and right now have them in a 47 x 24 x 14 inch cage (L,W,H). It seems like Dale has been doing a lot of bullying on Chip lately. Non stop biting, squeaking, and fighting over a certain hideaway. Chip has gotten extremely skinny and I’m worried! We don’t have enough money to get them a new cage or to take Chip to the vet. I currently have two hideaways, two hay racks, two food bowls, and two water bottles in there. So two of everything. In the past, Dale was recorded for biting through another pig’s ear, and caused some big problems. I don’t see any blood on Chip but I’m worried something might happen in the future.
So far, we have tried to separate them, buy toys, give them treats, comfort them with cuddles, and let them have time alone in our yard. When we separated them, they both were squeaking a ton and seemed worried and didn’t eat. Is there anything else I can do?
