I found this to be critical. I have already admitted to being new, so letting me know to separate them ASAP would probably need to be at the top. I have already said I didn't have any place else to put them so saying I did wrong by feeding them first and how could I afford that but not something to put them in is very rude and disrespectful. In my mind...I was thinking, OK these 2 and another one was in a home together already, they haven't ate recently, the stress from the drive and new place, they may attack my female or each other. So if I can get them fed we may reduce that a little bit. But as I was visiting family almost 4 hours away funds were short. So instead of the snide comment about putting the cart before the horse...Was not needed, nor was the newly acquired overfed improperly housed animal needed. A simple yes you did wrong, I suggest separating asap, and to watch for signs of these things would have helped way more than pointing out very obvious things that I have already stated in a rude way.
