How'd you get away with this AMA when I've been banned from most of the popular subs for a sarcastic joke?

Well that's pretty clear.

Ooo perfect AmA to run into.

So my brother has 2 chinchillas and a huge cage we've been having an argument recently.

He's had the 1 chinchilla for a yr give or take. And just got a 2nd one that's alot younger and they fight. Him and his fiancee solution was to separate the top 2 floors from the bottom 2 with something blocking the ramp opening.

I told him you should've done like I did with my rats. And that's 2 cages move em closer together a little bit at a time. (I never did the mixing bedding thing) then let em meet etc. Until you know they won't eat each other then same cage.

He is sold on the fact that yeah but they aren't rats...so solve the argument do you treat the introduction the same or is my brother just an idiot?

I'm only 34 and this made me feel like I'm 60.

Yeah that's definitely an option, the other option is I take his other big habitat and the younger chinchilla stick it next to my rats habitat and let them be friends.

Would rats and chinchillas get along? In the sense of hey it's a new friend or would it be a thunderdome situation?
