Wow! When we got our 2 boy guinea pigs babies they were from the same litter and they fought at first. Now they’re grown and they are best of friends. I guess they’re in the 20%. It makes it even more cute because they worked out their differences & now love each other.

I just reconnected my beloved mama piggy with a daughter she hasn’t seen in nearly 4 years. Her cage mate (another daughter) passed away 3 weeks ago, and she desperately needed another companion. Thankfully, they were in that 80%, and got along right away! I even wonder if they somehow remember each other. I made the tough decision to send her home with my friend, because I didn’t want my sweetie to be lonely. Best of luck to anyone trying to find a buddy for their fur baby!

Thank you for your videos!! I have one female pig, Jasmine, who turned out to be pregnant. One Saturday morning she popped out one boy and two girls! 🥰 Juno, Josie, and Jasper. Jasper has his own cage that is connected to the girls’ cage so they can still interact. The girls have stayed bonded, but every once in a while Jasmine shows them who is boss 🤣 I recently got a new piggie, Fudge, who is only 6 months old. After doing some research I was able to work on bonding Fudge and Jasper. It was a success 🥰

Thank you so much for advising against bonding babies with adults. Social media is full of bad advice, “you can only bond brothers” or “get a baby for your lone boar as it always works” (until they become teenagers!) We’ve got 16 rescued boys of various ages (mostly old)& none are related. We have got our 16 boars in a herd- I don’t recommend that to others though as it can be risky. Mine are very chilled boars now (like Saskia’s) and they live in a very large enclosure (or large room in our house in winter). I have spare cages for separating pigs if they were to fall out. I love your channel. It’s great to see someone else with so many boars.

Only 2 are neutered (they arrived like that) and 14 aren’t. My original 12 have been together a long time without drama. I’ve recently added 2 special needs piggies (blind, head tilt and 1 who had a stroke after mange seizures) & 2 babies as they weren’t thriving without a healthy grown up pig to “teach them how to pig”! :) 3 weeks later and all is calm. Fingers crossed.

I am so glad to find this video. I have worried about bonding our older boy with our new baby. We adopted him and he has been a single guy for over a year. As far as I know his whole life. After I dug into some research I found out they needed a buddy and adopted a baby. They have cuddled and moved around each other but the most aggressive behavior I have seen is our big guy expressing his dominance. It has been pretty smooth otherwise. I have watched your videos all evening. I did get the original guinea pig after my youngest who is 7 but mature for her age has been asking for one. I am taking responsibility for them both and I have seriously fallen in love with these little guys. Thanks for all you do for these fuzzy sweet pets.

Thanks for this video Scotty. I've had a situation with 2 of my males Rudy & Zachary who got along fine when Rudy was very young. When he became a teen he bit Zachary in the neck, 2 very deep puncture holes required vet visits & antibiotics. So they've been separated since but living side by side, like Pip & Gari. I thought they could never be bonded again, but maybe once Rudy is older I can try to re-bond them. Thanks Scotty soooo much for this GOLDEN info!! I had truly given up hope and felt disgusted at the prospect of ever having male piggies again. Now I feel more hopeful. My girl piggies are divas but my boys really make me laugh. They're all so precious! BTW, I love that wicked tarot t-shirt!!

This is actually a fantastic video I stumbled upon. I’m getting ready for some piggies in the near future, but I’ve had piggies in the past (which were boys). The boys did actually okay bonding, and I think it was because I had one as a baby, then adopted the second as an adult from a completely different organization. At first they bickered but then the two started getting along really well. I will say i never knew the girls would bond better, I had heard the opposite from one of the adoption centers so thank you for this!

i managed to form a good bond between two boys guinea pigs tied, my first piglet at 8 months was the new 6-7 months. Where we brought the new they said they wouldn’t get along with each other so we could only hope it wouldn’t. They both met for the first time in an unfamiliar area where there was little chasing but no fighting. About an hour later, they lay side by side in the same pose. They’ve been together ever since, there wasn’t a big fight. Sometimes they get together a strand of hay or vegetables. The big one sometimes chases the little one, sometimes they get together and there will be a little force pointing and going to click but that more serious fight is missed by luck. I don’t know if the fact that none of them had a partner in front of each other for a long time contributed to this

We recently bonded two new girls with our two existing girls, it was intense due to one of our original girls super dominant, she even got into a stand off with our other original piggie who she was ALREADY bonded with and had never gotten into a fight with before, at one point I thought we were going to have to separate her from the others, she was pulling out hair and chasing ALL the others around relentlessly, it was nuts! I stayed up ALL night watching and had to break up 2 fights (between her and the other girl she was ALREADY bonded to before the introduction of the newbies), BUT, I'm so happy we got good advise from the Facebook piggie group and stuck it out, only took about 48 hours and our girls have been living peacefully ever since, they all seem so happy now! So if you're bonding girls, like Scotty said, even if it LOOKS ugly, as long as no one is bleeding stick it out, the bickering won't last more than a couple days, they just need to figure out their hierarchy, which I'm guessing is more difficult for them to do without a male around.

My boys, I have been blessed. They cry if their cage mate is not there! I do have three that live separated by a grid for safety. So I agree with a lot of what you say but it seems I’ve had tough cases.

Great video scotty. I have an example of what can go wrong will go wrong sometimes. I teemed up father and son and after several months fighting started instigated by the son. They lived side by side with occasional interactions but fights would start. After the father died i decided to nueter the son and try a femail becouse he had always been the one not getting along. So i took in a rescue female that wouldnt live with other females. Even after weeks of being side by side there was a sudden explosive fight and before i could grab either of then she had her eye bitten through literally punctured. She had her eye removed and subsequent treatment for infection in the eye socket. She pulled through and coped fine with one eye but my boy developed a lump and this time couldnt take the aneasthetic and died the next morning. My one eyed girl then lives happily with a herd of three girls i got to put next to her so she wouldnt be lonely!! She got on fine and they all lived together hapily but what trauma getting there. I would endorse what you say dont give up but sometimes its good to be content with males living side by side. Well done scotty and lagprescue on recent evacuations. I live in england but have been following it. You all did an awesome job

Hey Scotty! Thanks for these awesome videos! A few days ago, I got a teenage Guinea pig for my loaner 5 year old pig. There is no biting or fighting, and they even lay down together at times, but the older one is annoyed by the younger one when the younger one sniffs his behind or try’s to get him to play, especially when eating. Is this normal, and will they be okay getting along?

I began the bonding process today with my new piggy and my other sweet piggy who lost her cage mate a few weeks ago. I thought it would go very well as the new piggy is extremely easy going, and so is my older piggy. Almost right away they were agressive with eachother, and started getting into. I am unsure how concerned I should be, as There was no blood but my older piggy did pull out clumps if fur from my newer piggy. It's been very stressful. I separated them each time, unsure how serious it was but I'm scared my older piggy is going to hurt the newer one.

Wish me luck, in 9 days the new piggy quarantine is up & I have to bond my boy with a pair I just adopted. The cage is 4 by 6 c&c grids, plenty of hides, most with more than one exit.

Hey Scotty I love your videos. Since you are very experienced with boy Guinea pigs I have a question for you. I have 2 boy's. They are of the same age. Not sure if they are brothers but they have been together since birth. They are almost 7 months now. I guess their teenagers now. I have a feeling that they are starting to establish rank more now. They are mouthing of a bit and chasing around. Sometimes they rumble around a bit. I have been checking them for bite marks. Both of them are free of any injuries. It's about 50/50 now which one is boss right now. Do you think that there is a chance that they will get along? Living in the same cage? Their cage is a c&c 2 by 4 grids. Love from Natasja from Holland

I hate buying in pet stores like petco/pet smart but I just lost my Guinea pig and his mate was getting severely depressed. No matter where I looked there were no boy Guinea pigs, one rescue was giving me a hard time and this rescue I work at only had girls. So my last resort was Petco. I have gotten 3 Guinea pigs from Petco, and what do you know they are/were all sick. My first was when I was 10, she lived a happy 5 years (there where barely any resources so my family didn't know better) and she was sick with something, bit me for 5 years straight. My second Guinea pig was a resent buy on March 8th because I ran in for pellets but I saw my Romeo was sick and I knew he wouldn't be alive by the end of the week I could see how bad his condition was through the glass! I knew I could cover his medical so I bought him and he has a mass on his face that thankfully is almost gone with antibiotics and an upper respiratory infection that is almost gone. He's in recovery and living his best life! My newest one, Zukko has some tummy issues but it's not severe and I had no choice for other piggies to bond so I bought him. I'm still working with them, its still a possibility and I'm trying not to loose hope, it is only day 2 and the first day they made major progress! In all honesty I think people should buy from those awful pet stores to save innocent Lives but of course if you can cover it. It can get pretty expensive but it's worth it :)

I wish i saw this video before. my guinea pig cookie may she rest in peace with along 3 of her babies, was a mother to one girl and two boys. Cookie and alexa the daughter bonded very well they never got in a fight. The boys Chocolate and Caramelo had a bond when they were just a month old after that I noticed the teeth chattering or territorial. I witnessed their first fight my mistake was to stop the fight and got bit real bad.

I tried to add my boy to three girls. Did not end well. He got bitten on his leg and stomach. When I put him together with just one of the girls, he bit her mouth open, so we rushed her to the vet. It healed just fine, but for now he lives beside them, which he seems fine with. He talks to them at times and popcorns, being active like a normal piggy would. We have been talking about making him a bigger cage and give him a baby girl.

@@skinnypigs1 We tried to the bathing thing a couple of times, but the boss girl really does not want to give up her status and he wants to be the boss. She will chase him around until he gets enough and someone gets hurt. The swapping thing is something we still do. He will end up trying to find them and call for them, but the girls look confused and get riled up with puff-up back fur and complaining noises.

Hi Scotty👋....I just saw your video and realized it wasn't the best choice to bring a second boy from the petshop (not a baby but a younger one) and man....it's been the longest three days if our lives (theirs and ours) the 1st day was rough, lots of shattering, nose punching and chasing. 2nd day looked a bit better, yet lots of purring and threats and chasing from the older piggie went on but I don't know exactly how long I should wait until deciding wether to separate them or leave them together until nature does its thing. Day 3 sometimes they can take naps and share hay but the older piggie is always trying to limit the other one, for example watching him trying to get a sip of water or a piece of veggie would be enough to trigger him and chase him back to his hiding place, making him stay there 80% of the day(the older to the newcomer) We're really concerned we don't know if the little one is being stressed out uselessly or if things will get any better. TOTALLY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, THE LOVE YOU EXPRESS TO THEM AND THE CONTENT IS JUST SO USEFUL....YOU'RE THE BEST!! ♡

Hi, Scotty. My question about bonding is this: I have a neutered male and a female. They are litter mates and about 10 months old. I had Salvatore neutered on Dec 11, 2019, and waited 3 months before trying to put the two together. That was on March 11th. Salvatore just chased Tosca around, trying to mate with her. Tosca ran for her life and sprayed pee on Sal. That was only for 20 seconds. I separated them and have not tried again. How should I proceed? Will they ever get along?

I'm starting too think of getting him a friend....I keep being told too have him neutered and get a female ! So it's interesting that you say it would work better with a baby boy ☺️ need too really think about if this will just upset my boy as he has always been spoilt 🤷

Rocky will eventually go to my nephew, but he has actually caused issues with the 2 brothers, who usually love each other! So stressful! rocky is now separated, but next to the other 2. They all seem a bit sad now though :(
