Hi everyone,

My two boys are approaching five months this month and I just want to normal if it’s normal for their behaviour to change? Ernie is very dominant and Bert is the submissive one. However, when we first got Bert he was very shy and skittish, but now he is the most vocal and loves any sort of attention, lap time etc all of that. He is like a pampered prince. However, Ernie has become very boisterous and moody at times. He doesn’t mind being picked up and he likes being stroked occasionally as he gets all relaxed and yawns. He’s always zooming and popcorning around so he is happy. I think Bert is more relaxed and a little lazy lol as he hardly does any of that. I just want to know is it normal to happen? They are still going through their teenage months so that could be a factor. We always give them equal attention and handle Ernie first so it’s not that.
 
All sounds normal to me. Bert has become confident and comfortable.
At five months they are only just starting their teenage months and they can get a bit more difficult while the hormones start to rise.

They both seem perfectly fine, I just think he is a very boisterous little guy. I think it is down to hormones. Bert has literally become like a little baby, but is a big instigator when it comes to the veggies lol
