Introducing brothers

[mgina]

Hey people!

We already have 2 degus, Garak & Sirius. They're about 6 months old, and we got them when they were 3.

We've been thinking about getting one of their brothers, feeling sorry for them being in the petshop. Bad cage and all that...

Do you think they'd do fine if we did all the introduction policies, and do you think they'd recognize each other? I'm afraid they might get hostile towards each other..

Difficult!

Probably wouldn't recognize at this point, but if you follow the guidelines for introductions, things should go fine. Be prepared to be patient though. Sometimes it can take a while to accomplish it.
