I raised the five boys together at a time when I had a herd leader. They all followed him and never challenged each other. It shouldn't have worked, but it did.
They were always boys. They never really became boars. Boris is a big happy chubby piggie, but he would never accept another male.
He seems content to live alone. We talk a lot and he can see me when I cook and do stuff in the kitchen. He is more bonded with me because he spent so little time with other guinea pigs.
Of course I made sure there was always plenty of food all the time. There was also lots of room. I have an enclosure not a cage. If a piggie wants to take a walk he can. I have had a couple who wandered around a bit. The boys liked being together.
