that is almost what it seems like. He doesnt chase the girls only sebby. This causes issues the last time around before the neuter sebby seems to be getting puffy over him but not biting hard. I hope he just get puffy at him. I will see how it goes today when I let them out.
 
Nope because my dogs sleep through it all and the smell is enough to calm them and rats bond that way.
 
they have had their daily out time together on the floor for a little while now. Sebastian and Sendai, have not spat since I put them in time out :) In all they get along well, the boys are still chasing my girls so the girls spend the time trying to get on my lap..


Tuesday I am off, once i am done with my running around, i will do the big scrub and move in.

The floor time is a bunch of rats romping around but no puffy boys, no noise, just pinning and grooming.

I am a bit behind on my cage cleaning. So today I had to clean two so I could do the other two tomorrow.

I had to clean theirs because I have the rugs in the wash that I will use in my other cage so that will have to wait till tomorrow. Since I had to clean their cage, I figured I would move them in.

I can say with them not living together it is hard to clean their cage. I generally block off a section and put the rats in, but them I have to wash around them since it is a must to see what i am doing lol.

I had them on the floor first so it isnt just tossing in the cage, then i just opened the doors and let them all in.

I dont put to much stuff in starting out, just in case one of them likes to own stuff.

They seem to be doing fine. It has been a few hours now and I found Sebastian and Sendai sleeping together. These are the two that refused to get along the other day and I put on the couch :)

Not much action but pixies show off her climbing skills.

They survived the 24 hours. No noise, one scuffle that I heard. I opened the door and let them run from the cage to the floor like the others do. Choxi still isn't used to it. It is new to the two little girls. She kinda sits in the cage door looking for a danger!

They seem to get along well so far. Still working things out. :) I am happy intros are done with them :)
 
I keep expecting my intros to go as bad as with Templeton and Dopey. I have very lucky since then minus a few bumps in the road from bad matches.
