Hi guys,
New to the forum.
I have two male lop eared rabbits (Boris and Marmite).
About 6 weeks ago they started to fight quite aggressively (I got them when they were very young but weened) - so I booked them in the vets who confirmed that their testes had come through and they have now been neutered.
It will be two weeks on Wednesday since they had the operation. They both occupy a large run and previously shared a hutch for night time, obviously now they are separated but both their hutches are inside the run. This means they can always see and smell each other.
I alternate during the day who has the run so that they are both getting their exercise and freedom.
It must be too soon to properly reintroduce as I have tried this morning and, whilst the previously dominant and most aggressive rabbit (Boris) has completely mellowed out and not as interested in fighting, Marmite wants to carry the feud.
When would be an expected time frame from the point of operation to 2 much more chilled out rabbits? Is all hope lost with them? They both were such good buddies previously.
Thanks
Mike
