Hi guys! I've just recently combined my 2 stars and they keep competing with each other. When they walk around their pen, I would see the smaller one(yoda) getting in the way if the bigger one(lucky) and she would not budge, she would push when being pushed and would just not give way, so you'd see them pushing each other, at times the bigger one looks as if she's climbing on top of the small one. But Yoda would just wiggle a little bit and push lucky.
They compete over hides too, Lucky would go in a hide and Yoda would follow and then i'll hear scraping sounds, when I go look, Yoda is inside the hide and Lucky seems to be trying to push her out but she won't budge again. There are 2 other hides in their pen but wherever the big one goes, the little one follows.
On food and me, when I approach them, they know I come bearing food. They would walk to me very fast and you could see Yoda trying to get in the way of Lucky..
Is this dangerous behavior? Should I separate, or just let them be?
I've had Yoda for over a year and Lucky for about 7 months. This is the first time they are together in a pen.
