Roborovski’s fought

[Ashira]

The pet store had 3 Robos when I purchased 2. Presumably they were brothers because they were all 3 housed and nestled together. My 2 had a bit of getting to know each other in their new setting, but are now best buddies and blood was never drawn from there romping. Then my emotions kicked in and I decided to return to get the 3rd. Bad idea. The 2 I had killed the 3rd. I know not why since they had all lived together in the pet store. I will be expanding my cage for the remaining 2 though - just so they have more ways to isolate from each other if need be. They seem to do so much together that I really don't want to separate them. Having said that, Ive never had 2 hamsters housed together before because I always had Syrian. I'm enjoying the interactions - they are a hoot, but introducing that 3rd after the fact was a BAD idea.
