From my previous post I have said I have two 2month old brothers I have had them a fortnight now and am a little concerned over some of the behaviour they have started to display.
Although they sleep together during the day once awake they appear to squabble constantly. They chase each other around and tumble with each other. There has been no blood as yet but am wondering how long do I let this go on before I decide if they need separating.
I have read all the other links to this topic and they seem to suggest that when blood is drawn it is time to divide them but this behaviour is quite aggressive and not sure if waiting for blood is the best move!but also dont want to separate too soon if this is just a phase.
I have followed all the advice to prevent squabbling but they still are aggressive, have they just decided they dont want to live together. Thanks for the advice, I have only ever kept single hamsters and want to ensure I do the best for this pair
Can I also add that Frank is especially dominant over the other and seems to rule the cage, whereas Fred is more timid and less forward.
