Keeping pairs together

[mistyjr]

What genders can you keep together in cages?

Example: Bucks with bucks, and does with does..


Thanks, Misty

Uhm, definitely not bucks with bucks. They would fight and could kill eachother.

Does could do the same, so personally I wouldn't house any together unless they were each altered and you had taken the steps to bond them.

Butif you arewanting to breed, I wouldn't house any pairs together.

Because i have my Dutch Doe with my new babies right now until my husband gets the cages built. So that is why i was wondering. She is doing great with them, Haves been with them for a week now. But my hubby is outdoors working on the cages for the 2 bucks. The bucks are brothers and they aren't going to be used for any breeding because no pedigree on the newest babies. But they are all together at the moment

Babies can be together up until reproductive age... Bucks can be housed together until they start getting on each others nerves, and does the same, although they usually will last longer together than the boys.

How old are they?

Normally I wouldn't put bucks with bucks after maturity...but I do have two Cali bucks (brothers) that are bonded (and intact) and live together peacefully. One is definitely dominant - the other one submissive.

They are so close that I decided to not try to show them at the state show because they'd have to be cooped apart and I didn't know how they would handle it.

I do not how old they are. But there is 2 Bucks and 1 Doe as we know of. But they are with my Dutch Doe that is about 18 weeks old. She is doing great with them all. But we are seperating the Bucks 2morrow and might keep the 2 Doe's together.

I knew of two bucks, that lived together peacefully. one was a nethie, the other a fuzzy lop. both were intack and not put together until they were older, they just loved to cuddle with each other. It isn't reccommeneded, but you can keep them together.
Just seperate them as soon as you can
