Tarquin was like "just let me eat man."

I remember when a rescue found a match for my male (Naoki), it was kind of interesting. He is usually super aggressive, but he just immediately started popcorning around when they matched him with Koto. The rescue said it was the fastest bonding they had ever seen. It took a whole 5 seconds for them to start popcorning around together after being put in their introduction space. They've been inseparable ever since. When I get Koto out, he goes crazy and squeaks really loudly until I put her back. It's kind of adorable how close they are.

Buddha Pigs.. that has to be the sweetest term : ) Love the Buddha Boys!

Tarquin is such a handsome boy! ❤️😍

Pete seems like a Buddha pig, too! He was being very passive with the naughty black & white piggy!

Had a lone weep weep (guinea) I adopted so he wouldn't go to the humane society. We found a lone 6 month male last night and started the bonding. Im so grateful for this video. I dont speak guinea so everything seemed so scary and I just wanted to cuddle them but refrained. Turns out their behavior is normal.

The way Matteu is walking around like a K1 fighter . Where is the fight I the biggest pig .

That big furry one is gorgeous

I love watching and listening to them. Amazing but I kept thinking of that phrase "Bros before ho's"

I worked in pet stores growing up and the guinea pigs were always my favorite. It was my first pet at around 8 years old. So fast forward to when I was 21 and my roommate and I both manage pet stores and our house looked like a zoo. 2 ferrets, 3 dogs, red bellie piranha tank, geickos, anoles, ball python, albino red tail boa and probably 4 other fish tanks. At one time we had around 15 guinea pigs and it was awesome. Now my gf has never handled or known anything about GP's, so I take her to the local shelter and she falls in love instantly. We end up taking home a 2 yr old female that was probably the smartest GP I've ever seen. We named her snickers because of her coloring. Had her doing tricks for treats in a few days. She was awesome. So after about a year I see there's a 3 month old female at the shelter, so we decide to go get her a friend and name her Izzy. Snickers is an American and the baby was an abyssinian. We do the typical introduction like you're doing in a neutral area. Things go OK, snickers basically doesn't care really, just doesn't want to be bothered, and obviously the youngster has quit a bit more energy, but they seem fairly ok together, no teeth chattering or showing teeth, just rumble strutting and some "I'm annoyed" sounds when snickers had enough, and the baby would back off when she got "the look." forward about 3 months, I cannot tell you how massive this Izzy got in that time. She was able to stretch out and touch the top of the C&C grid with ease. She was at least 3 times the size of snickers and became absolutely relentless chasing her and rumble strutting, mounting her etc. I cannot overstate her level of dominance enough. She didn't sleep barely ate, just 24/7 chase. After a few days snickers was fed up and it became violent, teeth showing, squabbles and urine spraying/marking constantly. So I put a divider in, Izzy just continued walking back and forth at the C&C divider, trying to dig under it, chew through it, climb over it, whatever she could trying to get to snickers. So I put a solid divider by covering the C&C with Coloplast. STILL didn't matter. Hee behavior ensued nonstop, 24/7. We ended up having to put her in a completely different room to get her to stop, and eventually adopted her to a family friends daughter as a Christmas present. I have never in my life, I'm 46 now, seen a GP act that obsessed and aggressive in my life, and I've probably own 20+ over the years. Have you seen or heard of this, where after a certain amount of time together, one will turn on the other? Or do you think they were able to tolerate each other just because Izzy wasn't mature enough yet???

i really wish i lived around there, i miss my pig and would love to adopt these babies! :(

I have a herd of 13 sows. So interesting to see the differences between boys and girls.

Tarquin has a mohalk...awe🤗

I am really happy that you give as advices about bonding, health and food. I just bonded two girl guinea pigs, thank to you. Love from Serbia❣️❣️

Omg you're the piggy whisperer

I'm not gonna lie. I was really entertained with this video. Especially when you gave the narrative of whats happening. It really helped me understand guinea pigs a lot more. Do you have female bonding vids?

Thank you for all the work you do to help Guinea pigs. You're definitely making the world a better place.

I miss my piggies. I have had 23 piggies in my adult life. I miss having them so much. They all went to piggy heaven. From babies to old age. I would go to the store and the checkers would comment on how healthy I ate and I would let them know that it was piggy food. I spent more on them than myself. They are the most amazing little pets. RIP babies
