Well i severly underestimated loppy's agression! Her lack of it on Sunday and Monday must have been due to the travel and change in housing cause, boy oh boy is she nasty! And she is just that nasty, she is very hutch agressive and food agressive. She will come up to the bars of the run or hutch though and sit there whilst you talk to her and you can stick your fingers through and tickle her but open up the run or hutch and watch out, you may loose a finger!
I think i am going to have to have a re-jig of the pens in the shed, Loppy really would benifit more from being in there where it's open and i can freely walk in and out without actually having to expose my fingers to her, at least until i have made some progress on the agression front. I just don't know who to move out of a pen, the only ones i could consider are Scarlett and Stitch, this would mean scarlett (french lop) going back into the 6x3 hutch with 6x6 run which isn't really high enough for her, plus she really enjoys her free time running around the part of the shed with no bunnies, or Max and Bootz being moved out, this could only happen until winter as Bootz suffers with snuffles and her coat is not the best over winter, this would give me some time to work with loppy though. Or i just leave her in the hutch and try to work out the agression in the hutch. As long as you don't actually touch her she's fine, you can sit next to her and put your arm in, as long as your prepared to be boxed a bit about it, but she does settle.
Hmm i think i will have to have a think about it! any ideas welcome!
