Two guinea pigs can usually live together fine. I have two males, and I have a friend who has two females. They will fight sometimes, but nothing life threatening. They also enjoy the company!
I would probably consult your Dr.. The urine of guniea pigs and hamsters have a very high ammonia content.

guinea pigs love running around. so letting him/her run around in a pen outside would be heaven. (with you watching of course)
You shouldn't use balls to exercise guinea pigs. They have quite long bodies so running in one puts undo stress on their backs. Instead, use a fenced-in pen and let your guinea pig have fun running around inside it.
Usually when guinea pigs jump around occasionally wee-ing, it means they are pop-corning. When pigs popcorn it means they are extremely happy. Sometimes they run lapes, too.there are hundreds of vids on youtube of piggies pop-corning if your not sure :)
If they aren't the same gender, then don't put them together! I have an older guinea pig and a year old guinea pig. You just have to introduce them the right way. I put mine in a play pen, i used a child pool(no water!!), then put a dish of hay in the middle. They nipped at each other at first But now they are BFF's!! If they are fighting, quickly trow a towel over them, that will stop the fight.
To accommodate nine pigs in four pens with each pen having an odd number of pigs, you can arrange the pigs as follows: Place 1 pig in the first pen, 1 pig in the second pen, 3 pigs in the third pen, and 4 pigs in the fourth pen. However, since 4 is even, this setup won't work. Instead, you can set it up as 1 pig in the first pen, 1 pig in the second pen, 1 pig in the third pen, and 6 pigs in the fourth pen, which still does not satisfy the condition. Thus, a valid arrangement would be to put 3 pigs in one pen, 3 pigs in another pen, 1 pig in the third pen, and 2 pigs in the fourth pen.
Pigs prance upon the pasture, Playful and pink, in their pen. Pudgy porkers pig out on peanuts, Patrolling the peaceful patch.
Yes. Pigs not living in a sterile environment can transfer tapeworms as well as other worms through their feces. To prevent this, clean the pigs' pen constantly, and if one or more seems to show symptoms of having worms, immediately administer a dewormer to all the pigs.

Put 5 sheep in each of three small pens... THEN - build a larger pen enclosing the three smaller ones. The smaller pens each have an odd number of sheep in them (5 in each) - and the large pen has a total of 15 sheep enclosed within it !
