Hi. I don't know if anyone has read anyof my previous replies to posts about how we have just bought jack a gfcalled hetti?
Anyway, I though things were going pretty well. Friday nightI picked her up and set up her indoor hutch inside Jacks big pen he hasindoors. Jack imediately pined after her so I let him in andalthough there was a bit of mounting they seemed happytogether.
Saturday nightI moved them both into Jacks hutch and run asher pen is hard to get out of. There was a bit of scratchingby jack and he seemed a bit more boisterous but they both seemedfine. Today I was going to leave them in the hutch togetheras she needs to learn potty training from scratch as the run is toomuch freedom but I have just gone into set them up for the day withwater and food and hetti was on top of jack humping him (for lack of abetter word). I would not have worried at this because I knowshe is now pulling rank but she wasn't just ontop of him she was bitinghim. I had to pull her off him and they are now in seperatedcages.
Jack is not bleeding and they are once again sniffing at eachotherthrough the bars making me feel guilty as sinn and I do not know whatto do. Obviously she cannot be shut up with him all day andif I leave her in her big hutch all day she will learn to use that as atoilet instead of his...
What do I do? Should I have seperated them? Please help as Ihave to go to work in 4hrs and don't want to do the wrongthing.
