Hi
Some of you may know I have my bonded trio of girls and also Blackberry, a now spayed girl who's been indoors all winter as we 'rescued' her 2 days before xmas. I was lucky with the trio bonding and thought I would have a go at bonding Blackberry with the others.
They have had 3 'bathtub' meetings which seemed to go ok, with mutual snuggling and NONE of the chasing and nipping I had with the trio bonding.
So- I just went for it and put them all in together in the Trio's home.
Straight away Daisy (the dominant bun, also spayed) started chasing her- there was no actual fighting, just chasing and a bit of fur pulling, but at one point Daisy cornered her in a corner of the run and Blackberry just started this dreadful screaming- so of course I plucked her out and cuddled her. Absolutely no injuries- she was not bitten, but was so terrified.
I waited a few minutes and tried again This time Daisy - and Bluebell this time- went up to her and she started screaming again before they even touched her. Rose took no interest in her whatsoever. I took her out and that was it.
Now I know rabbits only scream if absolutely terrified.
I think she's destined to be a housebun.
