Having some girlies over to stay: Where should I put them?

[Wheeky]

I currently have 4 boars (2 pairs) in my room. Over Christmas, I will be looking after a trio of girls. Will they be OK in the same room as my boars, or will the girly scent drive them crazy and cause squabbling? There's no risk of the boars getting to the girls, since the cage is a ferplast-style one and could go on a cupboard far out of reach. I'm just worried that being able to smell girls would cause bedlam (and tensions are often high enough as it is with my lot). :x

If it was me I would keep them in a separate room. If there is tension in your group already, the scent of the females might make things a bit more tense :...

When handling I would also make sure you always handle the boys first. If you handle / cuddle the girls and then the boys, they will be able to smell the girls on your clothes.

Good luck x>>
