Guinea Pig Health
The guinea pig health of babies is something that breeders of these creatures are concerned about.
The weaker males submit and are driven from the herd into a new location with a single female. In captivity the loser may die of starvation and exhaustion, because the dominant male drives it from water, food, and sleeping spots. So it's important to separate sexually mature animals. Two males can peacefully live together if they are neutered and never in contact with females. As for females, they also fight for rank, but do not drive the weaker from the herd.
