  • I'm not a rabbit expert, do not take what I say as fact, but my guess is, no matter what get the baby neutered. Your other rabbit could just be responding to the fact that in a way, the baby is still a threat. After it's neutered try introducing again. If, however, that is unsucessful, then you probably should just stick to seperate cages.
  • I suggest that u put ur bunnies in sep cages for now and keep them in the same room so they can get to know each other on their own terms,. You did the right thing with introducing them into neutral terrotory. Def. get ur baby neutered when the time is right but as for now seeing as u cant do this until he is 6 months, keep them in sep cages where they can see each other and try every so often letting them hop around in the same room that is neutrl territory. Like outside. My female bunny and my guinea pig DO NOT get along when they are in their bedroom but when they all go outside everyone gets along just fine so its kind of weird. Just take it slow and make sure they have their sep corners and can see each other and get used to them being in the same room.Just make sure the big one doesnt bully the lil one too much. Sometimes bunnies need to establish an heirchy of whose the boss and whos the submissive one. If they start humping its not becuz they are gay- whoever is getting humped is being told they arent the boss. Good luck and enjoy ur little bunchkins- i m sure they will work something out!
  • I had the same situation when I had rabbits and in my case it was a COMPLETELY lost cause. We tried for months to no avail, we just had to always keep 'em separated.
  • There are ways to try to get two rabbits bonded. ONe is to put them in the SAME pet carrier and take them on a car ride. I know it sounds silly but when they are scared they tend to accept each other. It works! There are other ideas on how to go about bonding difficult rabbits at the House Rabbit Society. GO to this page for lots more ideas, GOOD ideas:-) http://www.rabbit.org/journal/4-4/tough-bonding.html
  • I am searching for the same answer, i fell in love with a male baby rabbit. I curently own a 6 month old male neutered rabbit, i do not know weather i should purchase this baby rabbit, because of the same sex bond issue. Some places i looked seem to think it is better others say i should get a female. I cannot seem to find any information on introducing two males, were one is neutered and the unneutered, and is way to young to be neutered. Should I keep them seperated untell the baby is old enough to be neutered? Is it ok because the baby is not hormonal and my current male is neutered and should also not be hormonal? Should i just get a female baby from the same litter as the male i fell in love with? i hear male bunnies are better house bunnies and are more outgoing and social, and that is the main reason i want a male, i have only had one female out of all the different species of pets i have owned my whole life and for some reason i like males more lol. however the perpouse of my getting a second rabbit is mainly for my current bunny to have a friend and playmate when i can not be there. I also would love to have another bunny to give my time and love to :). please help the both of us!!!!!!
  • We just bonded a 6 week old female bunny with male fixed bunny and it worked out quite well!! We seperated the living quarters for about 2 weeks and let them play in backyard together. Now they live together and are in love and male never tries to mount female but instead snuggles and lets her groom him. Maybe you should try younger female bunny worked for us.
