I love my chinchildren!
Hi all--
So, after all of the advice I sought about intro-ing two males to each other, I got a new hetero (I think?) beige male named Bambam who has been with multiple young males in the past. In addition, before I bought my mosaic baby male he was with three other chins so he has a history of getting along with others as well.
Well, the quarantine period for Bambam just ended and I decided to try beginning the introduction process. I placed their cages next to each other and they both hopped around sniffing, and then I walked in hours later to see them huddled up next to each other in their separate cages. Now I know I moved a bit fast, but I decided that they would be okay in a VERY supervised (neutral territory) play time.
That went very well also, they sniffed each other and bounced around. There was a little bit of mounting on both of their parts but neither seemed to care at all or even react really.
So, because that went very well I decided I wanted to put them in a carrier and take them on a ride. 5 minutes into that ride they were cuddled up together sleeping. So, I took them home, prepared the cage with all clean accessories, two food bowls, and two water bottles. I put them both in the cage and here are the results after one day! No scuffles, no fur pulling, no biting, just bouncing around and cuddling. I must have gotten extremely lucky!! I was amazed at how well it went. Here are the pics:
