Bonding female bunnies! Help!

Sugarbunny

Warren Scout
Since we adopted Angel last year (female dwarf lop, 2 years old), our other 2 Merry and Pippin (mini lop sisters 4 years old) have been behaving differently. Merry keeps chasing Pippin although not fighting her. They are still grooming each other and most of the time seem fine. Merry and Pippin are in a hutch/run that can see Angel's, and sometimes they stare at each other.

What I am wondering is whether we should attempt to bond Merry and Pippin with Angel, for example by putting them together in the bathtub. Angel used to be quite agressive with us, but she rarely is now. All 3 are neutered (Angel was only a few weeks ago). We adopted her through Pets at Home, and were told she had previously 'rejected' a hutchmate, so we are not sure if she is just 'anti' other rabbits!

Has anyone got any advice or suggestions... we'd love them to get on, and for Merry to stop going for Pippin.:)
