I have 3 chins in one cage, my 1yr) younger white female is prgnant, and the other is a older 2 year grey female. I was forced to see if they would get along or choose to get rid of one(had 2 pairs b4), fortunately it is mostly working ok. but since she is pregnant Im assuming this is most of the problem, they hiss and pee @ eachother sometimes. but b4 i knew she was fat from pregnancy and not growth they werent so bad. should i simply seperate them temp and then when kits are old enough put all 3 back together? I have spare cages. the younger was with the male b4 but he has pretty much accepted both.

-cage has plenty of room for when they want to be alone from eachother.
 
how could you be forced to put them all together? if you had two pairs before I'd assume they were separated previously. Seems to me that they could still be separated. And what happens when the kit(s) are born? time to get some new cages.
 
If you can separate them, I assume you have more cages. If that is the case, why would you be forced to put them together?

Separate them now. If they are being aggressive towards each other then you are risking one of them getting attacked or the kits getting killed.
