stubby 175 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 I would'ent worry too much this year, its next year that you may need to seperate them, at the moment I have two snipped hobs that share one court, get on fine together throughout the year, although they do rag each other, but another four hobs all in seperate cages, as they will draw blood fighting another male Quote Link to post
The one 8,522 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Keep a eye on them and if it gets bad you might need to split them till the breeding seasons over Quote Link to post
para1 11 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 If one kills the other you wont have to split them mate "why take a chance"The hornier they get the more serious it gets, Quote Link to post
redeye jedi 39 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 if you've got room to split them then do it, no point letting them scrap if its simple to relocate one. Quote Link to post
Brimmer 220 Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 They are worth splitting up as said previously as they will continue to 'nail' each other for the next few months during the mating season, resulting in messy necks and scabs. May not be fatal, but they don't need scarring up for no reason. Any hole's a goal as far as hobs are concerned! Quote Link to post
