1) Are they of a generally peacefully species? (ex., society, zebra) 2) Are they related? (Brothers is usually better than father/son)
3) Do you have about 1 square foot cage space per bird?
4) Can both get to food/ water without two much competition?
5) Are there NO females around?


If all, or nearly all, those are yes, than you probably can. Keep in mind that every bird is a little different, and they may not get along. Supervise them for the first couple of days, and be ready to separate them if things don't work out.

Is 2 male guinea pigs from same litter better?

They can be however if 2 males are put together at a young age and they get along that is fine. We brought 2 male guinea pigs (different litters) from a local pet shop and they had been together for a few weeks with no problems and are still OK now one year on. In fact they sleep huddled up together.


Have 2 pair of mated finches and one spare male Can you place the male in either of the cages or keep him separate until you get him a mate?

It's best to keep the spare male separate until you get him a mate to prevent any potential aggression between the birds. Once you find a suitable mate for him, you can introduce them slowly and monitor their interactions to ensure they bond well.


My 2 very bonded male guinea pigs have started fighting the most dominant one has made all scabs on the other one should i split them up?

It is ok to keep male guinea pigs together, but really only if they are from the same family. I.e. one of them is the father. They are like most they quarrel for dominance. The male guinea pig will always get the female and when the younger get older they will question the dominant male and try to oust him so they also get a chance to mate. But if fighting does become to often try move them to a bigger enclosure to give them some space.


Is it better to have 2 female rabbits together or 2 males?

It is generally best to have one male and one female rabbit together to avoid potential aggressive behavior that can occur between two males or two females. If not planning to breed the rabbits, it is essential to have them spayed or neutered to prevent unwanted litters.


Is it ok to put a 6 month old guinea pig with a young one they are both male?

It is not recommended to house a 6-month-old guinea pig with a younger one, as there may be dominance and aggression issues between the two males. It's best to house them separately to prevent any potential fighting or stress. Consider neutering the older male if you plan to house them together in the future, to reduce aggression.

Can you put 2 male and 2 female parakeets together in one cage?

I have two males that have chosen to live together. They grew up together early. I have given them the 'option' to live apart - but birds of a feather... They've even chosen to live with 2 male zebra finches. The 2 canaries show aggression towards each other occasionally - but it's not a blood sport. I have the cage open all day - they fly in and out - but always 'go home' to sleep and eat. I think it's hard to paint all finches with the same brush. They're generally peaceful little birds.

Is it beter to train 2 male Labrador's together or 1 male and 1 female together?

Usually you wouldn't train to dogs together, they can be easily distracted, but it is best to have a female and male together, as 2 males are very feel very competitive and have the need to be the alpha male. They might get into a fight if they are meeting for the first time and have not previously been socialized with other dogs.
