Hello everyone, I'm Hillary.
I have five guinea pigs....I bought two of them from pet stores (but before you jump all over me listen lol).
Duke, the boy, was giving back to the pet store (petcetera) and that's why i took him...He's a very healthy energetic boy.
I then bought Viola from a place called pet paradise...they have an insane amount of animals there and their small animals aren't 'pet store' animals...its an animal shelter where they only get their animals from people who abandon them and everything. Well the pet store is a little laid back and likes the animals to feel out in the open (and this is the only pet store that i know that does this) and they have a huge room of two huge c&c cages for the guinea pigs (one for female and one for male naturally) thats on a large counter so that they are about waist length so you can get to know the guinea pigs and so that they aren't afraid of you. Well I'm sorta rambling...the point is that at one point someone must of picked up this one guinea pig and dropped him in the girl side because I brought Viola home pregnant.
Now Viola has 3 babies, two girls named Crumpet and Almond, and a boy named Waffles.
Now, they're almost a month and i understand that when they're a month that the boy has to be taken out but whenever I put him with Duke he literally mounts him...I don't know what I'm going to do...I think i'm going to just build him another cage and put him in there...but do you think it would be possible to get Duke to not try to hump him.

My Sow ( scarlet ) had two babies one boy..one girl. so I seperated the baby boy and put him in with my two adult males ( he was 4 weeks old ) and the one older male ( Chuzzle ) didnt bother the baby ( Bramble ) But Puck just wouldnt stop mounting poor bramble !!!It took about 4 days for puck to kind of lay off. He still chases him and mounts him a LOT!!!!!!!!
