Boys- I don't know what to do

I had a similar problem several years ago with a bully-boar, and we solved it very simply by rehoming the bully to a friend who had been looking for a pig in the petshop - we bumped into them there and arranged it on the spot. (Don't panic - they are very good friends and had all the piggy gear - they were replacing one which had died of old age).

After Cyril was 5 miles away there was a collective sigh of relief and everyone else went back to being happy and unstressed. Cyril was much better living on his own (!) - he just seemed to genuinely hate every other guinea pig he met.

I thought about maybe finding him a home where he wouldn't stress out everyone, however he gets on so well with the older male that I couldn't bring myself to seperate them. :sorry:

Could you find a home for the pair of them?
From my experience, the rescues in parts of the UK are short of pigs, so there may well be a good home out there for them, maybe ask around?

Or, have things settled down now?

I don't really want to rehome them. I am getting Brownie neutered and he is going to live with three of my girls. Things have calmed down a bit but I can tell Brownie isn't happy.
