Hi,

My guinea pigs have a tunnel and a large wooden house in there cage. They were leaving together in it, but today they have separated.

When one comes out the other rumbles and so the other stays away, he seems very afraid and I don't know what to do.

They have only been home a week.

It sounds like they are establishing who is dominant. Have a look at these threads.
