Bonding 13 bunnys

How much square foot would i need if i were to do this? i got 19ft x 19ft available space 24/7 Total 361 square foot. This would be with 84sqft of covered space. So about 9 foot by 9 ft covered area- i.e Shed. Then 10ft by 10ft of open shared space.

Is that right?

Thanks

Do you really think that's a good idea?

Sorry coming off from a failed bonding of 4 I just... 13? :shock:

Not sure I have two groups of 3, one pair and my others are sole buns at the moment for various reasons.

I know that shadow, stripe and rose , ava and athena will bond okay as i have tried them already, but seperated as my girls are not done yet. They are neutered by the end of this month however, so i'll retry after that.

Then i have had ares running around and he seems to be getting along with all my buns.

Sunny, paws should bond together okay as they are brothers and now neutered.

I think Ama lily and lucy will bond with paws and sunny fine as they are brother and sister to lily and lucy and ama is mum.

So i could keep them as two seperate groups.

ama, lil, lucy, sunny , paws
shadow, stripe, ava, athena, rose

Ares i think would be happy with rose's lot- so six in one group and four in the other.

My two boys patch and blaze are having treatment at the moment, so i wouldn't be bonding them yet, but if they are sorted at any point, then i would try put them together with each other as they have been along side each other and then bond them to one of the groups.

Then i guessed that bonding two large groups, would not be so difficult if they had already been accustomed to being in bigger groups.

May be right- i was just wondering if that would be enough space size if i ever managed to do it ~

sheer entertainment- although there is the medical aspect to consider if they got ill- carting 13 to the vets at once. The most i've taken at once so far is 7. Maybe i should keep it as two groups

:lol::lol::lol: I just got a brilliant mental image of someone trying to get through a door with 13 pet carriers.

Sometimes I've thought how nice it'd be if I could get all of my rabbits in a big group but I don't think it'd work because, as you say, I'd struggle getting them all to the vets together and if I just took one, I'd worry I wouldn't be able to introduce it back into the group.

Although I suppose if you could afford to call the vet out to your house maybe it'd work!

:lol: I'm always considering bonding mine as a group but I'm too scared to try it! 13 sounds... scary... but I do love seeing pictures of massive groups, it seems more natural somehow you could always try it, it's been done before :wave:

What age range are they?
