How lond does this female "heat"last?

A few months ago I bought two females to keep my single female company. Yesterday I learned they are males and they are fighting!! I seperated the males ( I only have two cages) so I'm sure we are going to have babies.
I was wondering...when will this quiet down? Will I ever be able to put them all together? I feel sorry for the little guy in the lonely cage. He's been with his brother his whole life.

the boys are always going to want to mate with her. If you want them all together the best thing to do is to look at getting both boys neutered. If your girl is pregnant, then when she gives birth the male needs to be taken away from her because that is when she is most fertile. The best thing for you though is to either move both boys in to a different room and to get another female or to neuter the males. You need to separate the male and females or you could have a good few litters a year and its not good for them to breed that much.
