Do anyone elses bunnies throw tantrums when they're wanting food/attention?
Kitt, I have noticed, flips his food bowl when it's empty... previously I used to put a few more pellets in but now I'm standing firm and cutting back - I've put a bowl of orchard, timothy and meadow hay in his bowl and sprinkled some mixed herbal garden in to it in the hope that he'll eat the hay to get to all the pieces... I also put hay in the litter tray as he loves to poop and graze (lovely). Jamie also throws tantrums but by chewing the bars on his cage...
I am SO excited though... the new happy hutch massive hutch arrived today, so we're going to put it up this weekend. I've a concern though... Jamie and Kitt are currently seperated by a metal divider (they're living indoor in large pens at the moment)...I had to seperate them because unbeknown to me my two gorgeous girls are actually two handsome boys (sexed incorrectly by first the pet shops, and then the vet) - so, when sexual maturity kicked in, they simultaneously humped each other. It has been nearly 2 weeks since they were neutered, and they had there first post neuter check on Wednesday and the vet is happy with their operation and the scars are fading and there's no swelling at all - in the few times I've put them together, supervised, they've cleaned each other - just like old times, then Kitt was start grunting and attempt to hump. Now I know his hormones are all over the place at the moment and it's the whole dominance issue again - but when should I ideally be moving them in to their new hutch together?
