Well I have introduced my male rats properly and now in the same cage and have been for about 4-5 days now but my younger one stays in this little house a lot more then usual I think then he should. He does come out and play and eats and drinks but he is in that house for a lot of the time. My older rat still power grooms him. They eat together like they eat out same bowl thing they don't sleep together in their cage but when I let them out on my bed they end up falling a sleep together. My older rat like pulls his by his skin and I think that it's to power groom him but I'm not sure there's no blood or anything but my younger one does squeak. Should I be worried? Is my older rat just showing dominance? How can I get them to like each other more? Do you think my younger rat is scared to come out cause of my older one and if so how can I fix it? My younger rat is 2 months old and my older one is 7 months old.
