i have two male dwarf hamsters named Pudge and Scamp they have a cage each but it joins so they can be together and have more space or separated so they have there own space
ANYWAY they have separate sleeping areas and a wheel each but the other night scamp went into Pudges place where he sleeps and they had a fight, later that evening i took out Pudge and noticed a little bit of blood on my hand so i turned him over and his scent gland was bleeding (not heaps but there was i bit of blood there) it didn't seem to bother Pudge too much and he ran around like normal but im not sure what to do, i was in panic mode all last night and didn't get any sleep every squeal they made i checked to see if they were ok and this morning i checked both of them for injuries and even though it sounded like they were fighting all night they were both ok
i looked on the internet and there was mixed thoughts about how to deal with fighting hamsters but id rather know what your guys ideas are and take it from there.
should i separate them, or give them more time to adjust? i really hope they can stay together, i notice they both wind each other up and usually there squabbles don't lead to blood
thanks for any advise
