Yes. I've done this many times before with my own guinea pigs.

The guinea pig may be territorial for a bit, but she will warm up to her.

Just be sure to be a little more careful with boys. The're a bit more aggressive than

girls.

Yes, have them play together every day for 10-15 minutes. I would notrecommendhaving them in the same cage right away. Wait till they can play together without them jumping on each other. If you put them in the same cage watch and make sure they are ok, if not they needmoretime to play together.

Can you buy another guinea pig then add a new one at age 1?

There is usually no problem with adding a new guinea pig even if you already have one. The best combination is to have a female, then introduce a new female. It isn't a good idea to introduce a new guinea pig if you have a male, unless you bring in a female because you want them to breed. If you must add a new male, try wshing it first to remove all old traces of its previous companions, as male guinea pigs are a lot more territorial than females.

Can you introduce a baby mini lionhead rabbit with your 2 year old guineapig?

No, rabbits and guinea pigs cannot be together. Even if one is a kit and the guinea pig is smaller. I want to have rabbits and guinea pigs in the same cage too, but the "Big Book of Rabbits" doesn't recommend it-- no book does. Also when rabbits grow up, they tend to get more territorial and will kick the guinea pig very hard!


Will a 3 year old female guinea pig get along with a 2 month female guinea pig?

If you introduce them in the correct way, maybe. Some piggies are just determined to keep their house THEIRS. Introduce them on neutral territory. Be ready to separate them with a dustpan if a fight breaks out. Keep them living apart until you are sure they can get along. Maybe your piggie will take in the baby as its own, maybe it will see it as an enemy. I have the sweetest little one ever and it doesn't like the baby at all. You never know until you introduce them. Maybe if you bring your pig to a store an introduce her to a few, you'll find one and be sure they'll get along. Good luck!
