Yes my friends have two guinea pigs and they do fine.
Guinea pigs get on well with each other provided they are all of the same sex. Same-sex groups establish a hierarchy through fights, but once established, this hierarchy remains and is rarely challenged unless the group changes or is under stress from outside factors.
Multiple male guinea pigs do not get on with each other if females are present (or in smelling distance), as the males fight for dominance. This can lead to severe injury, sometimes even death.
One male can be combined with female Guinea pigs in terms of social harmony, but should be neutered to prevent rapid population growth. Guinea pigs are generally very fast breeders.

∙ 13y agoyes and no it depends if they get on - mainly yes though because guinea pigs are very socialised animals and need lots off attention both from the owner and another guinea pig but if you do put them together make sure you keep an eye on them for the first few weeks

Are guinea pigs a pig or?

Are guinea pigs cute and furry?
Guinea Pigs are a lot more favorable. Hamsters are true escape artists. They can easily escape any cage with wire walls or no ceiling. Guinea Pigs, on the other hand, just need more space, and almost never even attempt to escape. Guinea Pig cages can have no ceiling and wire walls, resulting in a much cheaper cage. Guinea Pigs also have a wider selection of breeds. So, even though they are both similar and most likely equally cute, I prefer Guinea Pigs. I hope this answers your question.
