Ok so basically I have had my female rabbit Pepper for over 8 months and she is spayed and well accustomed to my house. Pepper is friendly, mischievous and very active.
A couple of months ago we got her a male mate named George. George is quite lazy, friendly, sweet and loves attention and cuddles.
They're both neutered and I have both their cages next to one another and I swap it around occasionally. However she is always trying to bite him through the bars, whereas he just wants to sniff her.
I tried to bond them in the bath tub and it all seemed to be going well , then nipped him on the head.
I also tried the washing machine bond and she bit him again , but he was okay.
When she's outside in her run and I take him out she goes crazy and starts trying to follow him and starts speeding about.
I haven't been trying to bond them for long but it doesn't seem great so far.
Has anyone got any tips or advice? I don't know if she acts this way because she was here first and possibly thinks shes boss.
Thanks
