Since it will be cooler, by the time the babies would be outside, I decided to try breeding.
They got to meet, through the wire yesterday, but this is the first time that they have been in the same cage.
It is also the first time that he has been with a female.
She is not lifting but he is insistent, and is not leaving her alone. I have an option on 4 more females (that I can pick up at any time) and wanted to have these two and the other four in a colony. Worried that if he does no calm down, that he is going to be neutered (by her) before the night is out.
Should I take them apart, or is this normal for guinea pigs? They are humming, vibrating but no teeth clicking.
