Little Ones
Forum Donator 2023/24
Definitely, Little had a weak spine and would bunny hop a lot so when I knew he’d have to go through a 3rd round of Digby’s constant four hour humping spree on his back, it was just too much for me to allow. Digby does seem to have come on in the way of trust and patience since he was with Little, so hopefully if Digby’s mind goes again, it won’t be too fear aggressive/relentless.Mine don’t just get it out for a hump, Jasper has cauliflower willy too and zooms around like it, all very odd looking when he first came but I’m kind of used to it now after nearly seven months with him!
The difference with BB and Sprout is age and agility over gorgeous Little, so if Digby does start at least they can escape and get of his way more if he does have his big humpy times, like you say you’ll just have to watch them.
I’d personally leave them in longer tbh, especially as they’ve met before and been separated. Just to make sure everything’s definitely settled and they’re happy before they’re in the cage x
Definitely going to leave them longer though just in case, I’m pretty content with where they’re at. There’s been no major dominance, BB has asserted leadership a few times by rumbling, or going under Digby’s chin when he’s in his space. Digby has also rumbled but mainly he’s been rubbing cheek to cheek with BB. There’s been nothing more than that though. They were popcorning again like they were during my first time trying to bond them, things are on the right track. The first time I tried them, I was so sure they’d work out until Digby went crazy so I’m just hoping he doesn’t snap this time
Everything is still going well this morning, they’ve been snuggled up together on the vet bed for most of the night too
