Default Not Sleeping Together

Every time I go and check in on Barnaby and Troy they both emerge from different areas, one from the tissue box, and one from a nest in the corner. Is this ok that they are not sleeping in the same place? I am worried that this could be a sign that they are not getting on??

They seem to be fine otherwise though, they go up to each other and have a sniff, they go on the wheels together, they havent been chasing or fighting, all seems pretty calm actually, I'm just a bit worried that they are sleeping apart. But is this normal?

i had exactly the same problem with my robos. mick told me to make sure that each bed had both robos scents so i mixed the bedding of both beds every evening. that seems to have worked. at the moment they are sleeping together during the day but sometimes especially in the evenings/nights/very early mornings when they only have naps they are often in different corners

maybe they have different views on who is the Midsommer Worthy serial killer!....
As long as they get along and not squabbling then i'm sure they are ok..

I wouldn't worry, as they've been living as part of a big group they've often slept in a couple of nests (as 8 was a crowd!). They're just settling in and getting used to the new environment.

I have two hybrid dwarf boys and they never sleep together. They hardly even acknowledge each other, aside from a few sniffs if they're out together. They've been like this for as long as I've had them, and they really seem to live together quite peacefully. I'm not sure if this applies to robos as well, just my experience.

Mine have slept together every day but it hasn't made a difference. They've still started fighting I wouldn't worry about it, as long as they appear to be getting on I would assume they are.
