Is it OK that my babies don't sleep together?

I've had my baby girls for about 2 weeks now. When they were both small they'd sleep together, for warmth I suppose. But now that they're both big enough to keep themselves warm, they sleep seperately. There's no doubt in my mind that they like each other, as they nap togther, and frequently groom and play with each other. It's just that Henny sleeps up on top of the shelf in their cage, and Penny sleeps curled up in her snuggly corner behind the plastic tube. Is this OK? I see alot of pictures of peoples' rats that curl up together all the time, and mine to snooze and nap together, but when they actually sleep, they sleep apart.

Yep, I have a couple that like to snooze alone.....
Yep. I'm just happy they still play with each other and stuff, it would be awful if they took a dislike to each other!
