Think my boys are starting to get aggressive towards each other, I mistakenly bought a cage which is too small, although most of the time they will snuggle together in a corner and they will eat together, sometimes I hear a lot of banging about then they jump around as if they have just got out of a fight and I also saw them rubbing faces/noses the other day although that looked harmless at the time, I hope it wasn't a build up.

The noises they make are quite normal to what they normally do when they are eating, a lowish purr/rumble and little squeaks.

I have noticed Hoggle dominates him in the way that Ludo ends up out of the bed and sat in the corner, which is so mean and all the more reason I need my cage, it should be due at some point this week.

Do you think a bigger cage will help them? What else can I do? :...
 
Thank you both, I will check out those links.

They don't have anywhere external at the moment, well they do, they have my dog's play pen (as per avatar!), but they were scared and tried to escape. They were so scared at one point, they nearly got their heads stuck in the bars trying to get out. :{

I have started putting their veg in 2 bowls, but they will happily wheek together eating hay though. :)

I've just checked my order, the cage is 119x59x47cm's. It was posted on Friday so I am assuming it will be either tomorrow or Thursday when it arrives, hopefully it will be sooner, I want it today!

Is that size ok? I am rubbish at the metric conversions! :red
 
I am not going to be able to have them in the kitchen anymore once the new cage comes, I love them in there when their faces pop through the bars at the chopping board noise!

Poor men are going to have to go upstairs, although they may prefer it whilst they are settling. :)

Edit: can you get a stand which will fit any cage that size? I can't seem to find one on Zooplus to go with mine. If I can get them a stand, I can keep them in the kitchen!

You're getting the same cage as me I believe :)

I'm not sure about a stand I haven't seen one on zooplus that would tho sorry :(
 
The stand for the rabbit 120 fits. Thats what I have.
 
Yes Kira, I think ours is the same, let me know what it is like if you get it before me! I am having it delivered to my BF's work so I am waiting for a text along the lines of what the hell have you been buying now?! :(|):<>

Ah, will check out the 120 stand, thanks. :)
 
Excellent I'm sure they will love that! I'm going to buy my piggies a paddling pool for a wee run read it on here think it's a class idea! :)!

I should really try working at work far too much time for here and google :))
 
I know, I have spent all morning catching up because of this place! :(|)

I am going to put pictures of guinea pigs up in their room too! :(|)
 
AWWW - great! You and your boys must be both so happy about the extra space! :))
 
They seem to be! :)

I took the brown bed out and unfolded the snuggle sac and they are both in there now! Hope they are happy! :<> They will be able to breathe won't they? It is quite thick fluff and one is stuck on the inside!

They have ate their veg too, which is good news!
 
Oooo Hoggle and Ludo look so snuggley! Which cage is that? The one that's about £40 (if memory serves correct?) from zooplus?
