Hi All,
2 out 6 of my female rats are small Siamese babies (probably around 4.5 months old). Each of them have had someone else in the cage bite their ears to the point where it draws blood, one even has a split scar from one of her battles. None of my other rats have a scratch on them. Should I be worried? The cuts arent so bad that they need veterinarian treatment (I wash with salt water & add antibiotic cream twice a day until the scab is stable). Do i leave them in? Should I take them out? any advice would be helpful.

They are more like older teenagers. I wouldn't be worried unless you see the younger rats act scared or hide all the time.
