We have 2 bucks age 5 months and recently got 2 more babies aged approx 6 weeks. We have had the cages next to each other and while our big boys are free ranging they can climb around the babies cage. Day 1 of intros went well our Alpha wasn't too bad at all I was so proud of him. Day 2 (today) of intros was a bit tense our alpha was rather rough with the babies flipping and pinning kicking with his back legs and not very nice at all with them (but no blood and i dont know if it seemed worse than it was!) Our other big boy seems to want to protect the babies and has taken to them brilliantly. The size difference is pretty big, is this normal for the alpha to do this? I've been looking at videos on you tube but none seem to have the size difference we have. Advice on how bad things can look but not actually be quite so bad would be great or any advice for me would also be appreciated. Thanks
