Default Re: Introducing Roborovskis and any newbie owner advice?!

Hope you get your little robo & well done for taking her on, it sounds as though she may have had a bad start in life & I'm sure she'll be happy to have a new loving home.

I agree with what CMB has said, it's never wise to introduce a robo to another, those that do live successfully in pairs or groups will generally be same sex siblings from the same litter & will never have been apart, to introduce a strange ham would lead to fights.
They live very happily alone & don't need company.

If you can block of part of the detolf to make a smaller space for her it would probably be the best idea, even with lots of hides & deep substrate they can be intimidated by larger spaces, you can then monitor how confident she becomes & how she uses her space before giving her more.
