Rumbling noise

Hello. I have two male guinea pigs. I notice that sometimes they chase each other about making a rumbling noise. Is that normal? What does it mean?
thanks Sarah

Hi again Sarah,

That is completely normal. You little boys are each hoping that the other pig they are in with might be a lady! This is the sound that boys (boars) make when they are hoping to mate with a female (sow). They usually give up after a while, and then the next day they have forgotten again!! They are worse when they get into a fresh cage as they get confused by the different smells!
