I have gotten one guinea pig roughly three months ago. He was 8 weeks old when I got him, so I'm thinking he's about 6 months old, give or take.
I finally found a second guinea pig to introduce him to. So far, the introduction has gone well. After the inevitable period of one establishing dominance, they now lay together like they've known each other for months.
I forgot to mention, the second guinea pig was about 8 weeks old now. So, I think they're roughly three month age difference.
My issue, however, is I'm getting paranoid that I was told their sex wrong. Are they both too young to have a penis that protrudes outward when checked? I tried giving that check to see for myself that they're both males. Now I'm just worrying ones a female, or both female.
Here are the best pictures I could get of their genitalia. The left is the youngest one, and the right is the older one. Any input? I understand it may be difficult to give a guess without giving a physical inspection, but any input at all will be appreciated.
