I suspect Iggy's bare nose (no fur) is due to barbering, but I always thought she was the dominant mouse. Coconut has been more assertive lately though. If this is what's going on, what can I do about it? Do they have to be separated? I only have 2 girls. Do I just leave them be? Thanks!

I don't think that most mice mind being barbered, if they do or it starts to get really sore looking or infected then that's the time I'd intervene. to let you see how bad Truly ended up because of her sister, I managed to find the photos :)
