I'm so excited - Daryl and Patrick are buddies! I had them in a split cage for a few days and they were doing so well that I decided to go ahead and try an introduction. Right away they started smelling and grooming each other. I didn't see any chasing or fighting at all, and I stayed in there for several hours after the introduction, to make sure all was well. I was so happy when I saw them cuddle up and go to sleep together. That was the cutest thing! They both seem happier and more lively now that they have a friend. Here's a picture of them together:

Thanks! They've had so much fun playing and cuddling together to sleep. It's been the cutest thing to watch, and I'm so glad that I was able to pair them up. Daryl is the black one. I got him from a pet store. Then I got Patrick from a breeder. They're both really sweet, but Patrick is more tame than Daryl is, probably because he was handled more as a pup. I'm working with Daryl, trying to get him more tame, and he's making progress.
