we have two males
phoenix and montgomery
mont is the dominant male, and phoenix was just injured
his lip is bleeding and it looks as if his lip was bit right through to the other side, (and mont also bit a huge chunk of phoenix's hair out of his back right above his butt) -
we are taking him to the emerg vet right now, but what I am wondering is:
after he is home, do we KEEP the two males separated for the rest of their lives?
what do we do?
they have been living together since they were 1 month old, and they are both 5 months old now... never fought until we got new guinea pigs (which are all caged separate) --- they have never fought THIS much before and there has never been blood shed...
what do we do when he is brought home?
they both live together in a 2x5 c&c cage
