Harmony achieved! Trigo: "I'm in charge here..." Centeno: "Got it, can I please go now there are bees to eat?" Q: Is there serious backsliding likely/possible, so to speak, to worry about? That they've achieved mostly-harmony out and about free ranging, is that just in the larger context...

Oh my this is all going quite well now! After chasing them back in yesterday they get considerably more polite and resigned. To the point that today, since you pointed out the separation I'd imposed wasn't really enough to make a huge difference such that integration, not isolation is the only...
