Hi everybody - this is my first posting, but I've been reading this forum with much interest.
2 weeks ago, we had to have our 10-year-old mini lop boy put to sleep, which was very upsetting. We swore, though, that we wouldn't keep another bunny alone and decided to buy 2 females to keep each other company. We're going to see some mini lop babies tomorrow, and I had intended to buy 2 females. BUT, this afternoon, I saw a beautiful female lionhead at the garden centre - she is such a personality, I fell in love with her! So, my question to put onto here was going to be to ask whether we could house females together of different breeds?
But now I am a little confused, because I didn't realise you should have females spayed, even if kept with another female. I hadn't budgeted for that. In which case, if we have to pay out to have females neutered, would we be better in getting one female and on male? We only have one hutch though!
Thanks!
