Fudge crackling nose

[paris_n.x]

Hiya , this is for my little boy Brownie , as know fudge has passed away
how much is
neutering a male guinea pig?
he’s seems lonely and bored and could do with a little friend , the guilt of getting another breaks my heart because of fudge but i know if i get another guinea pig fudge is sending one to me to look after brownie , I'm just trying to think how much it would cost for him at the vets? and is it dangerous for guinea pigs to go through this kind of stuff or if i get a girl i can get her sprayed , ?
i just don’t know if boys are hard to bond sometimes arnt they

The cost of neutering varies widely - you’d have to call your vet to get a breakdown of their charges.
Neutering a young, healthy boar is a pretty safe operation in the hands of an experienced vet. There is of course some risk with any surgery though.

Bonding boys isn’t difficult - it’s no different to bonding two sows or bonding a boar with a sow or - it comes down to character compatibility, they either get on or they don’t (ie a boar and sow bonding can fail just as easily as a boar and boar can if they don’t have compatibility).

If you can speak to a rescue centre who offer dating then they can help with bonding your boy with another pig - whether that is a boar or a sow.
Also bear in mind that If you get him neutered, he cannot be in the same cage as a sow for six weeks after neutering day (so obviously means he will still be on his own for a couple of months).
