Guinea pig castrate aggressive when eating?
Hi, my neutered male is really sweet. He almost always comes to the outdoor enclosure when he hears us in the living room. But when he's eating, he regularly goes berserk. He takes up so much space and pushes his females away from their food.
Is this normal?
That's why I always set up three feeding stations in different places, but it doesn't help.
One of my girls comes from a "child-friendly" home, so she's very shy anyway, afraid of many things, and immediately runs away when there's a crowd. I'm a little worried that she won't get all the important food if my neutered male is so aggressive about eating and pushes her away.
What can I do?
Thanks for your help
Hey😊
you can try to feed your sea ice separately. that you practically cut a part of the cradle, fence or cut off and feed the girls there and in the other half your male. Otherwise, you can also just swap the male (if it’s too suspicious!!!) a bit when he sends the others away.
Your animal doesn’t do it without reason, probably you feed too little. do you feed dry food? This is totally harmful. Your guinea pigs always need mountains of fresh food around the clock. Until the next feeding, there should still be something left. And don’t worry, grass food can’t be overcrowded by Meeris, they leave if they can’t leave, just leave and eat it next time.
LG, I hope I could help you
Hi, thanks for your answer. I’m just feeding FriFu. And 3 to 4 times a day. You get a lot of things left. Be sure to try the separation while eating.
Thanks for the star😊
Very happy!
