    Hard to say... it might just separate them. You know how selfish us guys can be with our favorite recliner. <j/k> :D

    Seriously though, in due time she will most likely join him. One question: was the wellso hosting both, or just the female? If just her, there's a little better chance she might not.

    The female was the only one that would be hosted on a regular basis.. She was very territorial towards the welso., but the male would be hosted on occasion... But she appears to be trying to edge the male out of the nem but she has no tolerance built up yet so is darting at him from outside... Couple days ago it was the other way around where it looked like the male was the aggressor when she was getting close

    Probably never separate her again now :)
    My male took a liking to my big condy, and my condie took a liking to him, I early morning I watched as my condy slowly moved his lifeless, color less body into the centre and waiting oblivion, condy's rarely make friends with anyone unless there's a meal in it :)
