Fighting Maccies

Hello everybody,
I have a problem of late only really the last week.
My three macs (Chuck,Dot and Sky)who have lived 2gether for a while now(Chuck and Dot for at least 2.5years)they have starting to fight each other.
Sky stays out of it by going down to the bottom cage and hides while chuck is quite aggressively bitting dot where ever he can.
Those two were sold to me as a breeding pair(which did not breed this year)and I'm going to get them probed to double check.
He has never performed this kind of behaviour before.
They are fed fornightly and have a split level cage so there is ample room.
He only seems to be biting Dot and not Sky.
I did take Dot out for 6 weeks as i thought she might be gravid.
Not sure if it a mating ritual it just seems to rough and not in season.

Any suggestions as to what might be going on.
I am baffeled by this shocking behaviour.
(By the way Chuck got time out)and no more girlfriends till he can learn how to treat a women.

Cheers very much.
Rob

my guess would be you got 2 males. it'll be a good idea to get them probed.
