Young Bun
Hi as some of you may remember I made the horrible decision to separate my neutered bunny brothers a couple of months ago due to the blood fest fighting they started after months of cohabitating.
Well I've finally been able to get a second hutch and move merry out of the run in the garage (with carrier as nest area) so he could reenter daylight bless him. Anyway I've kept him in the hutch for a couple of days to settle and today I let him run around in the garden with pippin in his hutch to keep them apart and would shoo him away from this area if they looked aggressive.
Anyway during a couple of minutes of kid induced distraction they clearly had a bit of a to do through the hutch wiring. Unaware I got merry back in his hutch and was about to let pippin out for his freedom session only to find him bleeding below his nose. So I kept him in as he's the more aggressive bun and will bite and scratch me at any attempt to remove him from the fight zone. If merry isn't around he's very affectionate towards us.
I bought them to live together with free range of our garden when were home. I don't want to confine them to hutch and runs but I'm rapidly running out of options. My hubby is already peeved that we now have two huge hutches taking up our small garden space but I'm feeling less and less confident that were going to be able to offer them quality of life in the long run.
Any suggestions to remedy this situation please?
