laurmurf Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 there's lots of information about introductions on the site, have a look in my experience - very slowly is the way to go. I've taken 2 - 3 months with mine, so you'll need two lots of accommodation to do it that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasha and kev Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 cheers for replying,we let the main attacker out of the cage after a few hours and shes been fine,tho shes very sly so is probably leading us into false believing shes going to be nice,well see how they are over the next half hour as theyre all settling down now if theres a prob ill put the 2 new ones in a crate over night,i dont have 2 seperate places to put them,they basically have a big plastic shed as there home and freerun off my gardenxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
