Re: Need helppppp!!

we didnt put them in together at first though we kept one in a seperate hutch and let the other one out of her hutch to let them get used to each other through the wire first, when we thought it was time for them to get used to each other properly, they came out together but one of our family stayed outside and watch them and they got on, we kept doing this and they stayed in the same hutch, now we have 3 9 1/2 week old babies that they have produced. we have kept them seperated for quite a while now but when they are ready again we will put them together again but we are not ready for another litter LOL

Re: Need helppppp!!

I maybe able to tell for you.

You dont have to get another big bunny, as long as you take some days off to bond them, its a good thing to let them get used to eachother through the wire for a week first and then bond them in a small area such as the bath so you can grab them if theres any serious fighting. Taking then for a drive in the car is also good at helping them bond because they will snuggle up to eachother. There will be a few squables and humping! But this is them sorting themselves out, as long as the fighting is not serious then let them sort themselves out supervised. Once you have bonded bunies never seperate them, even to go to the vets, they will fight when you put them back together. Same with bonding, its best to start early in the morning so you can supervise them all day, if alls well they should be left together.

Re: Need helppppp!!

Mad ini, because I thought he was gettin fat, but he isnt at all!
He's like one huge solid ball with fur on top! With a 'solid' attitude to go with it!

Seriously, if he was human, he'd be like Tony Montana or something

Re: Need helppppp!!

They are more likely to be french lops or at least crosses, never trust petshops they have no idea about breeds of rabbits. I would never buy a rabbit from a petshop they are the reason there are so many rabbits in rescues.
