So...its going well, given that theyre napping next to eachother in the bath now haha
We've had no rumbling or teeth chattering at all in the hour theyve been together, Bramble has been very careful not to walk on her (unlike Ivory, who has been knocking the poor little thing right off her feet!) She has only told her off once for going under her chin on her blind side. Since then there has been lots of ear washing and hay pile destruction.
I'm currently doing a deep clean on Brambles cage before I put them back in a little later. I have everything crossed that bonding Ivory to Shelly goes just as smoothly...but I doubt it!

Its been lovely! Theyre both away in their cage now, just pottering around. Ebony has really come out of her shell now!

Shelly and Ivory are not quite as sure of eachother but there has still been no outright fighting, nor any teeth chattering or rumbling, so I'm still hopeful for a smooth friendship. Its going 100xs better than when Shelly and Bramble tried to be friends haha

Sounding like it is going really well, always such a relief. I love the moving hay pile in the videos :))
 
Well that both of them also away into their cage, not heard a peep from them over the last 40 minutes so that seems to be going well. Both adults are more than happy to have the babies jump behind them for safety when I walk into the room so thats nice :)
Thanks for all the useful info in this section, it really helped! I'm always a ball of nerves during introductions.
