We've done a lot of research prior to starting the bonding of our m/f pair with a single m.
We're keen to take it slow so as to minimise stress to the buns (and us!).
We are bonding in a pen in neutral territory daily and are currently at approx 30 mins (after 6 days) Our two males are more confident and approach each other but always head first which leads to either boxing or a tornado which I break up immediately.
My question is, will this eventually improve if I continue to break it up in this way? At the moment it makes me wonder how they will ever work things out if their only close interactions are like this (they spend most of the time approx 20-30cm apart, interspersed with these fight interactions).
