So I started seeing some possible bullying between my two Leo babies, AND I WAS PREPARED, and have them separated. Their still tiny, the older, bigger one about 18 weeks and the smaller one a month younger. I knew this was likely to happen, but hoped I had more time and would be able to put them outside when it became an issue. The one getting possibly bullied is eating and everything fine, if it truly was being bullied I caught it early.
My question is, would adding a third change the dynamic or once this bullying starts on this little guy there will always be issues? I know the theory is it keeps the focus off only one, but will she keep being targeted now that it has possibly started? Now I'm not just getting another to solve this issue! I actually had been looking at some babies that are from the same breeder even before I lost Jesse and have my eye on one special little lady :0) I don't want to get it of I am going to end up with three separate even though I have room for another enclosure if it comes to that, but I wanted to get some opinions and expert advice from you guys.
