introducing a new hob???

[kielt 0]

i have had a jill for 12 months now and have decide to get a hob. the gill is around 14 months old and the hob is around 9 months old. they are both in seperate hutches at the minute. is there any problem with me just putting them both in the same hutch and see if they get along or will they fight? thanks in advance

shouldnt be a problem then mate put a bowl of 50/50 milk water in with them and keep an eye on them for 10 mins hope that helps cheers DM

no reason just introduces them together without just chucking them in straight away cheers DM

hi ive had no problems introducing new hobs to my jills, the fighting is to claim dominace, once the jill gives in to the hob due to his size and strength they will get along fine.
