Rats doing the wild thing???

Okay, so I got my 1.1. to start my colony and for the day it was going good...The guy figured out how to do his thing...Good for him...

However, now he's chasing the girl trying to get it on and she's actually fighting back...It seems pretty serious that she doesn't want him on her at all right now...I feel stupid asking this question, is this normal?

I'm a knucklehead...I kinda found the answer in an earlier thread...Thus, unless someone sas other suggestions, I will leave them together till I for sure know she's preggo, then put her in her own space...

Mods, you can remove please...

you don't need to separate them.

You can leave the dad in there all the time he will not hurt his own babies

I run 1.4 and never remove anything but babies. Adults are only removed during cleaning.
