I recently adopted a neutered Netherland Dwarf male to keep my neutered dwarf lady company. They're getting along really well, no sign of fighting or problems, but they both seem determined to be the submissive member of the relationship meaning they're both asking for grooming and neither is returning it. I'm not sure where to go from here, given that they're getting along fine should I proceed to move them into their new shared hutch, or just continue with their bonding sessions until they settle into some sort of pairing because at the moment they just aren't really interacting beyond sitting next to eachother.

I've read the same thing, but with Banana or baby food :roll:
If they are asking to be groomed it means they want to be the dominant bun, not the submissive bun. Luckily it sounds like they aren't over dominant as they aren't fighting so I'd also be inclined to try the mashed banana on one of their heads and see if you can get one to submit.
