another question re pre-bonding

Beatrix Potter

Mama Doe
Would it be ok to put both bunnies (one newly neutered the other not yet spayed) in a divided run so that they could at least get used to each other before I bond them? Its going to be at least 8 if not more weeks before I try bonding them.
 
Definately make sure that they cannot reach one another, they might try to bite if they are territorial. I have also heard on here that bunnies can mate through cage bars, so be careful that cannot happen too!

Hiya

yes I heard that too!!! hoping to find a couple of cheap (or free) runs that I can just put next to each other so not even noses touch!
 
proper wire mesh runs should be OK but mine were in dog crates and even with a 2" gap between them, Benny managed to take a chunk out of Tia's face :( He lives next to Maa in a hutch now and tries to bite her through the mesh but can't seem to do any damage - and she seems to like the attention! But he's not as aggressive as he used to be toward her - I think he'd miss her if she wasn't there :)
