Hi, Quarantine time is over and I have had them in seperate cages next to each other, then on top of each other. First time they were together Comet, the male was overanxious and Hayley, the female was saying BACK OFF. I gave them another week of being in FN 142 cage and tried again today. At first there was aggressive noises and so I trimmed Comet's whiskers and rubbed both of their bums and noses with vanilla. After a bit they started to pay attention to oneanother and then Hayley was mounting Comet. A while later they were grooming each other. They are back in their own cages. My question is, after doing this a few times, and if they continue to groom each other, what are the chances that they could still turn on each other after they have bonded? The previous owner who had Comet had put him with a male and Comet beat him up.
Both Chinchillas come from reputable breeders and are ok with these two being used for breeding. I am doing a lot of research and have started going to chin shows.
