okay so i have 6 rabbits, but this only concerns 4 of them, them being
oscar, f
bella, f
mojo, m
nora, f
i originally had oscar and bella together as a couple and mojo and nora as a seperate couple, and then i bonded all of them together as a quad
(i tried to bond all 6 but the others were obviously not going to get along)
the reason i did this was so they could have more room but also because oscar is a fiesty little girl.. while with bella whenever i would come downstairs to see them oscar would chase bella and hump and bite, after a while or after giving her food she'd settle down but i hated that bella was picked on so i wanted to try and bond the four so that bella would get the love she wanted off one of the others, (i dont think oscar is mean all the time, just when i come and see them - and she has been seen to groom bella and lay next to her)
ideally id just like for oscar to be nice to her bunny friends all the time, but i dont see that happening, she was okay for a while after being bonded in the quad, but now she is at it again.. she bites bella or nora, never mojo (not sure why).
so today oscar was a bit more aggresive than usual and tore nora's eyelid so nora is currently at the vets awaiting surgery tomorrow
mojo went with nora because they are still very much best friends from when they were a couple.
i dont know whether to try rebond all four again when the other two get home and risk this happening again... (im also a uni student and i just spend all my savings for this surgery so i cant afford for it to happen again, of course i have enough money for their care and id always pay for any care they needed, but its hard on a students income..)
i dont want bella to just have oscar because i dont think its fair on bella if shes picked on all the time..
i could pit mojo and oscar together and then have bella and nora together but then id have to split mojo and nora and i think that would be cruel because they love each other..
i could have a trio and oscar on her own seeing as though she injures everyone, but i find that equally as cruel as i think bunnies should have company of their own kind, especially seeing as though i am usually out... and i know oscar loves the others but she is just aggressive at times..
i dont know why oscar gets so aggressive, it makes things hard because i dont know what the best thing to do is
anyone got any advice??
and not advice like my mums where giving her away is even suggested because although she can be a pain i love her to bits
sorry for the long post...
