Hi guys. Bonding wont actually begin for a good few weeks yet, but id like to be fully prepared. I think im going to make this my diary, if you like. Ill post all my quieries and questions prior to starting and update on progress as i go along.
I'll let you know when it all starts but id really apreciate it if you could check this thread occasionally incase ive added any questions. Hopefully it will become my bonding bible by the time im ready to crack on.
Also, if anyone else has any bonding questions, you can hijack this thread, i dont mind :wave:
MY PLAN:
It will be a M/F/F bond, Marley and Dolly who have been bonded for over a year and a female called Skye.
Once Syke has arrived, she will be indoors housed away from Marley and Dolly for 3 weeks minumum. She will be vet checked and vaccinated before i begin introductions. I plan on speed dating with Dolly and Skye withoug Marley in the hope that Dolly wont see her as much of a threat, ill do this for about a week. Now im not sure if i should add Marley to the mix during speed dating or if i should just jump straight in and get on with bonding in a pen. What do you think?
As Syke is only young and will be around 12 weeks when i start the bonding process, will her size compared to Marley and Dolly be a problem and should i put it off a little longer? Waiting until she is spayed is not an option, and it needs to be done before she reaches sexual maturity or not at all.
Also, is a 4x2 bonding pen too big for 3 nethies? What size do you reccomend?
