My first pair of rabbits were a pair of does and met at 10 & 12 weeks old in the pet shop.
They weren't spayed cos it wasn't the "done" thing then (oh, 10 years ago, maybe) but they never fought once in 6 years.

Occasionally yes, but there are still quite a few female rabbits (even sisters) who fly at each other after a certain age. Could take 6 monhts, could take years.
Neutering is definitely recommended.

they can, it just depends on the rabbits. and as said above, sometimes an apparently happy pair can suddenly fall out - although i have seen threads about the same thing happening with m/f pairs so i guess there's just no predicting bunnies!

Just a little question to those of you who keep does together (just borrowing your post Radish, hope you don't mind)
When you neuter one or two of a bonded pair, do you keep them together while they are recovering? Or if not, do you have to bond them again afterwards?

I kept mine together all the time and had no problems
