Default Should I seperate my roborovskis?

Soda has a chunk bitten off her ear, kind of like Nev fron that bear behaving badly program (I used to love that show :P)

Should I seperate her from Puccho before it gets worse? They do like eachother though, I bought two wheels, but it was a bit pointless because they run together

If one has bitten part of the other's ear, it sounds like they have been fighting and should be separated before anything worse happens I'm afraid.

Hello Kittokitty. They might be somewhat stressed at the change, but most often, the one being bullied or attacked starts doing very well fairly quickly. They both might look for each other, but, they also might just go on as if nothing has changed at all. When my Toffee died, Almond took it in stride and was just fine. Even if hammies do get a bit anxious after a separation, they have short memory spans and will just adapt to living as singletons. Just make sure they both have what they need and they should be fine.

I made Soda another MALM cage and gave her a few of the toys

I gave her the play logs (she always used them more than Puccho), one of the loo roll tubes, one of the wheels, a loofa chew, a sand bath, and one of those wooden dangly thingies (awkward name for it but okay :P)

She also has a make-do water bowl which is basically a tilted one of those little candy jars rinsed out with the lid off. I hope she doesn't mind dolly-mixture scented water :P

I wouldn't complain about Dolly-mixture scented water!
Great you're good at DIY and can come up with a new cage at any notice! Hopefully they'll be happy living in their separate cages

I'm actually pretty bad at DIY :P I'm great at lazy DIY, though.

Although I'm probably going o do wood tech for one of my options just so that I can make cool hamster cages :P
