Hi, i know peoples views on neutering are not to if two males are happy, but i have a 3-4 year old who is so sweet and docile who would never fight back in with a 2 year old who is outgoing and frisky, they have been together for 2 years and its been fine till a few months ago. The problem is the younger one just keeps humping the older one who just takes it (he has a little squeak but won't tell him off). I'm worried that hes going to stress him out - can this happen. Would neutering calm the younger one down (not that i want to put him through the op but if it stops the domanance over and upsetting the older one i may!).
Any advice please?
 
I'm sure somebody who knows a little more than me will be along soon for you but i'm pretty sure i've read that neutering doesnt change behaviour in piggies. it's certainly not stopped my sean from humping his wife evry day. :(
Hope you find a solution xx
 
Neutering does not affect the personality,it literally just prev ents the boar from getting a sow pregnant.
 
If there's no fighting i'd leave them. It might seem stressful but we are humans and cant put our feelings and emotions to piggies because they're just not the same and dont think like us! I'm sure your older piggy is fine, and unless he does start showing signs of stress i'd leave them x
 
I agree with jnenbnb. I'm certain if your older piggy was that bothered then he'd be telling the younger one to get lost in no uncertain piggy terms! Even docile piggies will take a stand if they're being hurt. Don't think you've too much to worry about and the younger one is just becoming the Alpha male. O0
 
It might be to do with the sunshine and Spring coming along... the hormones are probably on the move again!
