So there's been a slight update on the litter we are getting our buns from in respect of gender identity, meaning we will actually be getting one boy an one girl. I'm a little confused as to how to house them when we do as I keep finding conflicting information on how to go about it.
I realise we will have to separate them until they have been neutered but should we do this right away or can they stay together for a while first?
When we DO have to separate them, are we going to need a whole new hutch or as it's only temporary would it be acceptable to make up a sleeping area in one end of their run and block it in the middle with some chicken wire to keep them apart?
Then when they are done, how long until we can let them stay together again? I assume this is complicated by spaying usually being done a little older than castration?
Sorry for the mass of questions but I'm quite confused on how best to get them fixed without ruining the family bond they have.
