Bouncing bunnies
Mama Doe
As some of you may know I brought my new barc buns aurora and Ariel home on Wednesday.
As they've been ok, except iv noticed aurora chase ariel three times. I think she's pulled som fur as iv found some in the shed/run so this must be from times I didn't know of. Ariel can be quite humpy with aurora given the chance but Ariel has never from what I have seen chased or nipped at aurora. I think she is chasing due to stress as my neighbour had just started mowing their lawn which is why I came to check them and this is when aurora was chasing Ariel. Again fur was pulled. They stopped as soon as I appeared and Ariel can jump out of auroras way but it's still not nice. I gave them some more hay and a small amount of hawthorn to distract them, after they'd both calmed down. So far this seems to be doing the job. Ariel is still abit shaken and aurora is still a bit defensive but I'm watching them from the conservatory and they seem ok. I wasn't sure if I'd done the correct thing or what to do if it continues.
