Well a couple months ago i introduced my guinea pigs totally wrong, i didn't have a big enough cage or anything.( they had fought )
Well now i have a big enough cage for the both of them and i decided that spliting there cage was bad, i got new fleece, cleaned the cage grids and
got new hay and everything i filled the cage with new food and hay and put them in , i had some cardboard with me just in case they got in a fight
i was a bit worried so for the first 5 minutes i didn't let them near each other and than i thought i was being a bit paranoid i stopped and watched them they were near each other , following and eating (lily nipped cinnamon a couple times for getting to close while eating ) for about 10 minutes i was watching some YouTube videos on introducing and warning signs, well they started
pointing there noses up and i thought " you know there going to just back down and go back to eating" , yes lily backed down and than came around again and they repeated it and than Cinnamon my eldest started to chatter and they launched at each other i freaked out and put the cardboard inbetween them
whenever they saw each other they tried launching at each other again i got really worried and put back the divider in there cage and now there in there separated sides of the cage eating , i don't know if i left them for too long togethor, or if one of them did something to make the other angry, is what i did bad or i did good seperating them ? and should i reintroduce them again?? please help im really confused with this.
