We hav 2 guinea pigs and we put them together and they were fine untilnow a week later now theychase eachother

Question

we got them last week from the same cage and they were fine an now they bite each other

Answer 1

Are they the same s*x? Is your cage big enough?

I'd read http://www.guinealynx.info/companionship... and http://www.cavyspirit.com/sociallife.htm... for tips.

Answer 2

separate them. they could really hurt each other. only let them be with each other for small periods of time with constant supervision (btw all time out of the cage should be supervised) and as soon as they start going after each other put them away.  even though cages are like 50 bucks or more, its better to spend 50 bucks on a new cage then 150 bucks getting your guinea pigs stitches at the vet. it could just be a stage and they might grow out of it.  i hope the problem stops soon!

Answer 3

give them places to hide in then they should comme down if they dont get a sepret cage and put one in there and one in the other the intorduce them slowly mack sure they dont atck one onther right away one of them might have some thing wrong take them to the vet if it dose not get better!

hope i could help

Answer 4

ummm you may want to pop in lots of tos and things for them to hide in. it might just be the stress due to just getting them. having hiding places lets them hide when under attack. after a little while if they are still going crazy at each other you may have to seperate them for a week or so and then introduce them slowly. put their cages near each other untill they are used to that and then put them together for 1/2 a day and watch what happens then put them in together all the time. good luck
