Two baby boars who are best friends, and one new grown up one? I know it will be hard to try to bond them but I want to try anyway.

Does anyone have any tips on making it easier or experience of trio bonding? I've read the basic info on how to get them used to each other's smells and all.

I was thinking that with introducing new cats it helps if you dab some vanilla essence on both of them so they smell the same, so thought something like that might help with the boys. Meeko (the new one) needs a bath anyway, so maybe I'll bath them all?

Thanks guys :)
 
Bathing them together definately helps in my experience. The first try at introducing my two wasn't great but second time worked perfectly after a bath together. Making sure there's an exit and entrance to everything is a good idea as well.
Have you read Weibke's guide? This is really good and lets you know what is normal behaviour.
Best of luck with it.
