Dominance
« on: September 27, 2016, 05:43:00 PM »

I recently found out my chinchilla has been attacking my other one over dominance. I got chilly, my 1 year old chinchilla first then I added a new addition months later. Ever since the first day they didn't get along. I have descovered that when I told chilly outside of peppers cage she's friendly towards pepper. However when I hold pepper she instantly goes crazy and tries to attack. I'm pretty sure this is fighting over dominance but Is there anyway to fix this?

No theres no way to fix it. Once they start fighting it always gets worse. You are better to separate now before they hurt each other
