Is it good to have 2 guinea pigs?

it is good to have 2 guinea pigs because the first guinea pig can get lonely during the day if no one is around. If you have had one female guinea pig for about a week or two and have seen that she is getting lonely, you can put another female guinea pig right in the cage. If you have had a boy guinea pig for about a week and want to get him a friend, unless you want to have babies, get another boy guinea pig but keep them in separate cages unless you are monitoring them because boys will fight. If you want to have babies and you have one guinea pig, don't put them in together right on the spot because the boy guinea pig may get very aggressive with the girl to a very dangerous and tragic point. Keep their cages close together and once a week, hold them both in your lap (together) and pet them with the same perfume. If you do this, they will see that they have something in common. After about a month, put them together. if they look like they are in a dangerous situation, separate them again and do the same thing for another month.
