  Well, today I TRIED to get my three together but I was just too afraid! I made a cube from NIC grids, put Sugar and Pepper (bonded) in the cube, took them to my room and tried to put Coconut in the cube. Coconut would not let me hold him long enough to get him inside the cube. I tried a few times, but he kept squirming out of my arms. I then left the cube in the room just so they can all be close to each other. I did that for about 20 minutes. They would sniff each other through the bars, and occasionally Pepper and Sugar would try to nip Coconut and even nip each other. I’m afraid if I put Coconut in the cube they would fight. I wanted to do this and get them all in there to stress them a bit, but I think doing all this stressed me out! Any advice on how I should begin this process?

  From what I’ve read, you’ll want to try to bond the more dominant of your duo to Coconut separately first. Once thats done, it should be easier to bond the second. Good luck!

  So should I not try to stress all three of them together? Just stress then bond them separately?

  Definitely separately. Bond Coconut to the more dominant of the 2 first, and the less dominant should be easier after that
