Get them done ASAP! Bailey is definately dominant, but since he is with a male bunny (Gizmo) the mounting won't stop until after they are both neutered.

janice my vet always says he doesnt do boys until 5 months old but in my case he would do them at 4 month as i had so many rabbits (and did not want accidents happening!)
so i would say they are a few weeks to early, but gina will have to talk to her vet and see what his option is!

Eve, our vet does all our boys as soon as their testicles have fully dropped. I think it may be probablywhat they feel confident in doing as long as they have fully descended.
The vets we use probably neuters over 200 a year including our rabbits ... I don't know if that makes any difference.

yeah , i think ur right , i,ll see what the vet says . they are no where near dropped yet so i could be waiting a while :shock: its not happening all the time tho and they are still very friendly and cuddly with each other , bailey just takes a funny turn and does it for a good half hour at a time !! gizmo does not seem phased at all tho :shock:

I must admit we had to seperate our boys for a while as one tried to 'neuter' the other one (as the vet put it) before we could get them done. We just kept the 2 boys apart (but next to each other seperated with a fence) for a few weeks afterwards and then slowly introduced them again. They've been together since last Christmas and apart from one small spat in the summer, they've been very happy with each other.

It seems a shame to split them doesnt it? I hope the vets gives them the all clear to loose their bits :shock: As long as their is no nastiness all should be ok Good luck let us know what the vet says
