hi, not very good at the first aid bit (I'd be asking too) someone should be along soon who will be able to help you :)
 
If it's a liittle cut, Keep it clean, if not a visit to the vets is best.
Keep you eye on the piggies and if they don't settle. Be prepared to seperate them.
Sorry can't be more help.
Good luck
Anne.
 
First off, how bad is it? now don't panic... wipe the blood away like you have done and offer some food to piggie :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
They might have just had a disagreement :( :( His brother might be upset or may have done this cause of their playtime together...
How old are they love?
Boars can be quite mmmm aggressive at times, go and have a look at Barmy4Boars, Susie's posts are fabulous and her advice is really great :smitten:
 
Teenage tantrums I'm afraid, this is when guinea pigs reach their teenage years, although they can have disagreements any time really :) Make sure they have enough space, 2 of evrything..bowls, hidey places etc. Keep an eye and if things escalate to the point where there is about to be an actual fight, you will have to seperate.
 
Oh dear you have your handful well this is what occassionally happens with boars I'm afraid and it will heal on its self but id keep an eye on them if i was you O0
