My boys are in a 2x4 with a 2x1 loft on a storage base. I might get 2 girls so I need to have a separate level for them. I can't make a completely separate cage due to space constraints but I can build UP. I've been warned that if my boys see (and maybe even if they smell) the girls, they may start fighting for them. How likely is this to happen? And if I want to avoid sight of the girls, do I put them on a whole separate level ABOVE the boys or can part of their cages be next to each other as long as there's a solid piece between to obscure sight of the girlies?
Also, I don't really like the idea of having my cage so tall. Would it be horrible to remove the storage base and put the boys at floor level? Or would that just be too scary for them?
If anyone has any pictures of how they keep their boys/girls separated, please share!
