Hi
First post here! Have kept a pair of rabbits before both sadly passed away. I'm getting some baby rabbits from a rescue soon, originally picked out a male / female pair but now it has become apparent the male is what seems the runt of the litter and although he's been declared healthy by a vet is perhaps not quite "right".
There are 4 babies in the litter 2 female and 2 male, my options are to either take the other male instead and have a pair, or take the smaller male along with the 2 females. I don't want to take him in a pair as I don't want to be left with 1 on it's own if he passes away at a young age.
But I don't know what will be best, is a trio like this likely to succeed or is better to stick to a pair? They will all be neutered when old enough.
Thanks
