Re: Gay Cavy

How old are they? If they are within 3-5 months old they are going through adolencence which is a period where dominance is more ''intense'' then usual. The behaviour you are witnessing is completely normal and is a way of seeing which pig is ''boss''.
Mounting (any which way: rear mount, head mount, side mount, flying leap mount is fine.

The ''naughtly'' behaviour should pass in time once they get used to eachother and pass through their adolence. However it may continue in the future though not as frequent.

To read up more on this behaviour see: http://www.cavyspirit.com/sociallife.htm#Getting

Re: Gay Cavy

They seem to be friends now, Frody is still mounting him though, but Wombat is starting to stand up for himself.

Re: Gay Cavy

hehe yeah, all males act 'gay'. Like Fluffball said, It is a dominance thing. I have two males together and now they have stopped completely.

Re: Gay Cavy

Wombat has started telling Frodo off everytime it happens now, which is good. They seem to get along better too.
