so i have been bonding for what seems like a life time!
and the progress goes up and down, but there is virtually no humping (maybe Mojo (m) tries once in the night but gives up quickly) and no fights
my one trouble is Oscar (f) nips the other two girls bums all the time and chases them off, the chasing isn't a chase to hump of fight, she nips their bum then chases for like a second and is happy, its kind of like a get out of my space type thing, as sometimes she will just nip them and they will hop over one spot and she doesnt chase or anything.
I don't know why she is doing this.
After everything was going well i increased the space of the pen, then again when Mojo again had slowed down the humping (at this stage he was the only one causing any problems), and then now the cage is really big and for 2 days or so everything was fine, Mojo had pretty much ceased the humping, but then Oscar started her nipping thing.
So what should i do? I could decrease the pen that they are already in or I could take them to another room and vinegar the stuff and start fresh in a smaller pen if that sounds better? But the only other room is my bedroom, which has two buns in there that have bonded (like a treat!), i could move them back to the original rabbit room, but my room would still smell like them i assume, so would this be okay?
thanks in advance for your help
