Introducing a Problematic Chin to a good natured and sweet chin

Well, my wires also have narrow gaps but it still happens. You never know what angry chins can do.

HI guys. Its been a week now since i've started re-introduction using the Adjoining cages and Neutral zone methods. I've let them play in the NZ twice a day, once at 5am in the morning and once at 7pm in the evening. When the pink white shows any sign of aggression, I'll put him in a dark ventilated container for 5mins. If she continues her aggression for 3 more times, I'll extend the time-out to 10mins. So far both of them now can run past each other without any fighting most of the time. The male will even stand up against the female when she tries to bite him. He will mount her and groom her if she corners him. Should I encourage this behaviour? My personal opinion is that I should encourage it but I would like to hear your advice.

I'm still quite fustrated with the female chin, don't understand why she's so aggressive to my sweet little boy. The longest they can go without any biting is now 20min. Hopefully next week got more improvement.

woohoo... tried putting them in the same cage at 6.50pm. Observed them grooming each other at 7pm. Tears almost fell down my cheeks sia.. haha.. I think the girl is just jumpy, any ideals on how to calm her down?
