Really? I was just going by the Dani Clan page, i think. The only new
thing was the bedding. Same cage and wood blocks. Everything else was
familiar. And they're doing great. Curled up together, sleeping most of
the day.

It is best not to do it this way. You should introduce in the same split
cage you used for the earlier part of the process. You should leave them
in their for at least a few days before placing them in a fresh
environment.
