I feel like iam impatient with this, its only been a week of my two elders smelling and getting to know the two younger arrivals. But all my other intros in the past were successful in a matter of hours.
Anyways here is the info:
My two 1year old sisters, are spayed.
I now adopted two 2month old sisters, not spayed.
The cages are close enough so they can smell and hear eachother.
One of my elders have pretty much accepted them, even grooming them, but the younger ones are still petrified and refuse to submit.
My other elder on the other hand, puffs up still, slams them against a wall with her behind or side. Now she nips thier tails and legs if they try and run away.
I tried the vanilla trick, but it doesnt work, should i intrude and pinch my elder? they respect me very well, the slightest nip from me has them on thier back.
But the other problem is the younger ones refuse to submit.
Anyone have experiences with this? Will they ever be friends?
