Hey everyone! I just got Rhino a little brother! His name is Yoda, He's half silkie (at least) and he's 3 weeks old.

The intro couldn't have gone better! I set Rhino in the play area, then she set Yoda in and Yoda attached himself to Rhino's side immediately. Rhino said hi and they scurried around, popcorned, and ate from the pile of lettuce together. there was a bit of rumbling, little Yoda tried to be dominant which was amusing, but Yoda never left Rhino's side the whole time! It was super cute. When Rhino got annoyed, he dominated Yoda and pushed him away when he tried to drink out of the same water bottle.

Anyway, it went perfect! :)

Here's a pic, I'll post a better one tomorrow when there's natural light.

Rhino smacking Yoda was pretty amusing. XD I haven't seen a guinea pig do that before.

He just reached over an smacked him! I would have expected him to nip him or something but I guess he really didn't want to stop drinking. XD

Yoda is so cute! It's nice that things went well.

This reminds me, before I got Puff, she was annoying her mom, and her mom just smacked Puff's face with her paw.

Rhino hasn't ever been too interested in it, Yoda goes in sometimes but this morning i noticed that Yoda had taken over the cave and Rhino was in the hut, lol. A change in dominance in the future? hmmm.... I'd say though that they like the cave the most and they'll both have their own soon ;)

Thanks! Yoda's coloring is so unique, he's kinda like a roan plus a brown spot on his face, it's very cool. And i love Tri-colors so there's Rhino for ya, haha. It's like their long lost brothers. Everything i read said that they'd fight when they got introduced and all that, and maybe it's just the size difference that made such a huge difference in their interactions.

Thanks, i'm wondering how long his hair will get. :)

It was exactly like that! He just smacked Yoda it was quite humorous.
