What does it mean when buns put their chin on top of another rabbit? I used to think it was a sign of affection, but I've noticed than only my more dominant rabbits do it...so perhaps it's really a dominance thing?
actually Tim a rabbit putting it's head down to the others mouth is being dominant..as in it is saying . "you groom me "..while bonding we see it a lot
the dominant bun will mount then get off and ask to be groomed..if no response will mount again..this goes on until the submissive one gives in and grooms regularly..you may later get mutual grooming but initially this head down is normally the bossy one!
As for head on top..I have assumed it was a well bonded pair just relaxing..as have seen both buns in various pairs do this
