Do I need to separate them?

I have two boars in a 5x2 C&C cage. Wilson has been very aggressive towards Woodrow for the past 5 days now, chasing him round everywhere, chattering his teeth really loudly and barely leaving him alone. Woodrow just runs away and hides on top of the house or tunnel or something. Do I need to separate them?

Unless blood is drawn, no. It can take up to 3 weeks for everything to settle down.

I agree with pigsforlife.
If it gets to the point where one may get hurt, you may want to seperate them.
I am not sure what to do for seperation, but you can put grids in the middle?

Re: Do I need to separate them?

How old are they? Is one going through adolescence?

You may want to add a second level.
