George Kinloch 16 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Got a new Jill coming tomorrow. Was wondering what the best way to introduce her the the other 2 would be? Cheers. Quote Link to post
tomas 9 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 What I did with mine is put two cages cloise to eachother and swap beding so they get the smell then introduce them in neutral ground and see how they get on then put them in the same cage and just watch them for a little while Quote Link to post
dave1600d 35 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 with mine i introduced them on neutral ground,,,,,they had little scuffles and a few squeaks,,,,,but let em go as long as you dont get the pooing,,or signs of blood...they just are sorting out the pecking order mate..i recently got a new hob,,in the last two weeks,,,,my 3 girls are spayed and older than him,,,,,,hes been castrated about 6 weeks ago and hes young i think,,hes far more playful than them,,,,,he has the odd run in with my more laid back jill but they soon part,,,,,,,,at first my laid back jill slept on her own when we got him,,but shes ok now.they all sleep together now in the one bedbox,,,,,so persevere mate and they should all be ok,,,good luck mate....dave Quote Link to post
Country Joe 1,411 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 I have two Jills from different Litters, have tried to introduce but the new Jill, just wants to fight, have tried all different methods, but nothing works, its a pity, as they both good workers, one Jill lives with the Vasectomied Hob, and the other on its own.

sam4530s 37 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 my 3 yr old jill beat the life out of my 2 hob kits , every time she passed 1 she'd have a pop at it , after about 3 days they was gettin on and after a week they was all sleaping together happy ever after Quote Link to post
George Kinloch 16 Posted October 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 That's good. I heard letting them drink some lactose free milk from the same bowl can help them bond. Just worried as my Hobs are really big. Will just have to watch them for a while. Quote Link to post
