well ..the girls are doing well ..all 5 of them are in a All Living Things condo and are happy as clams ..
the boys on the other hand ..i have 5 boys-4 cages and the 2 younger rats who ARE together still scrap sometimes :doh: Going to take it slow ..they are all relatively near each other now and can smell and see each other .. next will be one in a small carrier placed into the play pen tote while another is outside and free to walk around the carrier and sniff without getting too close ..then swap places, rinse repeat ..i think its going to be a looooong process since they are all fine when they are close enough to smell each other and even touch each other thru cage bars, but put them in a neutral place together and oy anic:
