Hi,
We have two guinea pigs, brothers, who are nearly 5 months old. One of them (now known as Fat Matt!) is much bigger than the other (Stuart), and is clearly the dominant one. They sometimes have a bit of a barney but are OK. Yesterday, they had a massive fight and Stuart ended up with a ripped ear and a scratch to the head. We have had them inside for the winter but have been letting them roam around in the house for a bit every couple of days so they don't go stir crazy. I don't know what to do about the aggression, or the ripped ear. It seems to be healing OK, but I'm worried about him. We are away over Christmas and our neighbour is looking after them. I'm not sure about whether to take Stuart with us but it's quite a long journey, and they might be lonely apart,
