We have three young rabbits living together, brother and sister aged 8 months and little Toby aged 5 months. All have been neutered. They do seem to get on OK but little Toby always seems to be left out and recently I have noticed that when it is feeding time (I always do a routine giving a piece of food to each of them in turn before giving them their bowl of food) the other 2 seem to shoo Toby away and he dives into the corner with his head down and won't take his piece of food.
Also sometimes when he tries to snuggle up they let him, other times they shoo him away and again he hides with his head in the corner of the cage. There is no sign that they bite him but I do sometimes find fur in the run or their cage. Is he being bullied or is this normal bunny behaviour.
I don't want him to be unhappy and if he is I would consider bonding him with Honeybun a single, partially sighted young bunny we have. We did hope to bond all 4 of them, but Honeybun was getting beaten up too much we couldn't bear it and so have stopped trying.
I would be interested to know what other people think about whether he is being bullied and whether to leave him with Tia and Tyson or try to bond him with a little girl of his own.
