So gps&2 have been together for 18 months quite happily - gp2 was introduced as a baby and gp1 is just over 2 years old. Two weeks ago there was a lots of squeaking and gp1 was chasing gp2 and constantly trying to mount him.
We bathed them but then realised gp2 wasn't moving properly. Vet confirmed he had hurt his back leg and we suspect it was because the other gp is bigger and heavier than him. So two weeks and a bottle of metacam later, they are still separate but living next to each other with just bars of a run between them.
We let them share some space yesterday and they seemed delighted to be back together, but straight away the mounting started again. I'm concerned for his back leg being damaged again but really don't want to have to keep them separated. Vet said 3 weeks for leg to heal - what do we do after that?
