Okay, I was perusing the chinny reproduction faqs trying to see when male chins started their humping behavior to try and put a round about age on Nibbs. And I came across the information saying that that males in the same sex group should be castrated to prevent fighting.

I've seen information that belays that. So is it necessary? I'm in the process of getting ready to get another chin, and hopeful cage mate for Nibbs (another male). This is something I'd definitely want to take care of before hand.
 
Its not needed. Some people choose to do it but the chins with either get along or not and Iwouldnt risk the aneth unless its totally needed.
 
If you're going to be keeping two males together, I don't see the point. Neutering doesn't necessarily change anything with how they'll be toward the other chin.
