So for the last two days, Thumper and Peaches have been fighting a little more than usual. Last night was the worst! :banghead
It started out great! They were eating together and just chilled out. They had a few moments of grooming eachother then after about 30 min. all heck broke loose! Thumper wanted to be groomed and Peaches nipped him then that was it! They went at it and boy was this one hard to break up!:tantrum:
I don't ever end their meetings on a bad note, but this one was a different story. Thumper grabbed onto my hand something fierce (which got swollen) for about 15 sec. so I put him in his cage and then Peaches bit my other handullhair:though it wasn't anything like Thumpers bite! :grumpy:
I was sooo upset, then just hurt! I know we've only been at it for just about 3 weeks but why is it getting worse? They seem to like eachother one minute and then go at it the next when one doesn't get groomed when they want it!:foreheadsmack:
Should I continue full steam ahead with their meets or should I give it a break? If so, for how long? I knew that this was going to be hard and that it would take time but last night kinda broke my heart.:tears2:
