Hi
I have a 5ft X 5ft X 2ft run for the buns to use for 8 hours a day, every day, rain or shine. As the girls have matured and become hormonal, they seemed to have distanced themselves from me and become more skittish and unfriendly. This is getting me down. When I first got them, I sat in their run almost every day when the weather was good and they become really friendly and happy in my space. From about 4-5 weeks ago, they have become really skittish and distant and don't seem happy in my company at all. I have stopped sitting in their run with them because of college commitments and time, and I think they could be one of the causes. Do you think this is? I'm getting them spayed beginning of next month and I hope they start to change their behaviour afterwards. I had previous female bunnies before who turned vicious when they had grown up and we didn't spay them. We were very distant from them and I wish I had spent more time with them. I don't want to become like that with my girls. Do you think spaying will help? I did sit with Milly today, giving her nose rubs and she seemed to like them, and asked for more. She has never done that before, then she got bored and went to eat grass. What do you think I should do?
I have to take the roof off the run whilst I am inside because it is only 2ft high and my head sticks out of the top. What can I do to make it safer, because they can jump out quite easily if they use me as a climbing frame? Can I get wood/wire panels easily to extend the run? We aren't DIY people so want everything done for us, and for us to just screw in the panels.
