Do they live together?
I know i had two when i was younger. . . and one killed the other in a fight! I simply put it down. . . that they were both males and it was a territorial fight which got out of hand! The pet shop obvioulsy miss informed us!
Then late last year, my brother got two female white winters and they only wanted one when they went for it. However, the pet shop (different one to before) said that they wouldn't live very long on their own and that they needed to be in either a pair or small group. About a month later one killed the other. . .
Just thought i should say. . . some people may be fine but twice is a bit odd! I would never do it again!
They look cute btw!

They used to live together, but they started fighting badly, so I decided to seperate them, now they are very happy on their own. Thanks
