Rake aboot 4,935 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Aye Cant you get a bigger cage,, check gumtree or somit, Better keeping two together.. ATB Quote Link to post
rabbit.slayer.no.1 3 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 why not build a nother layer on the top of the one you have then put a ram in. spliting them is like some one taking your wife away because ur house is to small. Quote Link to post

ryangolding 4 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Are they related?? Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Just to add - hobs that have been with jills all their life dont do worse when split than a jill would. They get used to being looked after by the lady and also its like their little 'thing' being the bloke. I got some very unhappy hobs here that have had to come out as their balls are down.

royal marine 0 Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Well my albino hobb was separated from the gill as she did a runner I think he is a bit of a bully because since the new gill went in all he has done is have a go at her Quote Link to post
