Introductions It's bedtime but they just had a fight...

If it's bedtime, I'd leave grids up between them, and then see what happens in the morning when you get up. Maybe start with a buddy bath?

Will do. Just wanted to be sure that that was the right thing. We had them in neutral pen for over 4 hours and another 4 plus in the cage with nothing but basic behaviors. Mostly Rhina chasing Pixi and Pixi running away. I was shocked at the sight of their fight. I checked them both for bites, I was sure there would be, but no blood so back in they went. Just doesn't seem safe to leave overnight though. Guess we'll see how it goes tomorrow.

@bpatters So do I have to start over 100% now or can I take the grids down, buddy bath and put them back in the cage and watch them?

I don't know. The cage already smells like both of them, so it might be ok. And it might not be ok if you actually took it apart the cleaned it.

If it were me, I'd try just taking the grids down, giving them a bath, putting them back, and watching them like a hawk.

Okie dokie. Do you ever get frustrated when you think of the number of people who do everything all wrong and it works out fine and you do everything right and it doesn't? I appreciate ALL of your help @bpatters.
