the bonding between bump and atom has been going really slowly.
most of the time they either ignore eachother or both put their head to the floor for the other to groom them.
neither will give in and groom the other and atom occasionally mounts bump - both have had their boy/girl ops and atoms hormones have calmed down.
bump (girl) was always the dominant rabbit with wicket so i can understand why she wont submit. atom is a total 2 foot boy and pancakes if you go near to him.
last night there was a scrap - it looked scary as they were both on their sides and spun round like a catherine wheel. there does not appear to have been any bite marks left and just one or two tufts of hair.
i know this was due to the fact that we'd tried them in the hall where they both live and so it was less neutral than the kitchen.
i'm thinking about taking them out in the car but need some advice as to how to do this.
please help!
as soon as atom goes in the hutch they are both poking their noses through the bars and bump sits next to the hutch with him all the time.
thanks guys!
