I generally quarantine 6 weeks to 2 months. that should give you time to catch any problems. It will also allow the little one to get some strength to keep up with the other one.

LOL! Nothing wrong with being paranoid. It's much cheaper than doubling or tripling a vet bill!
90 days IS better but I feel I am lucky if I can get a new keeper to wait the 6-8 weeks!
They get sooooooooo impatient!

Yeah I do all of my own work pretty much, I keep as up to date as I can in exotic veterinary journals and stuff and I have all of the equipment at hand. If I need to take blood for tests we atleast send that out to be analyzed so I have a big company to help. simple things like fecals, tail amputations, lacerations and abrasions and burns are all handled in clinic our though.
