Hi! First off, you need to quarenteen them for at least 30 days, then a vet visit... Then you can start! Start by keeping their cage in the same room (after quarenteen) so they can get used to the smell and sounds of eachother. Then, you can gradually move them closer, until the cages are touching (you have to pay close attention to how they are getting along at this point!)... If they are talking, and clicking, then your job will be easy! Start swapping out blankets (put a blankie in each of their pouches for a night, then swap out blankets on night... once they are used to that, swap actual pouches, then finally, swap cages!! At this point, you can get in your tent, and do an introduction... bring a spray bottle with you JUST in case they roll up in a ball fight, and if they get into the same pouch together after tent time with no fuss, you have successfully introduced your new pair! Others may have different advise, but gradual is less stressful. Just my opinion. Good Luck!!
