:wave:I'm not sure 'dates' are great either, I am in favour of housing one rabbit next to another for a period of time though, I find this helps in terms of smells, sounds, movement recognition etc I also think swapping items like toys, litter trays just before cleaning out etc just so they can familiarise with the scent is a good thing. It's worked for me with dogs and rabbits this technique, it's a good way of introducing them and in particular a 'new rabbit' to the household aswell, they are disadvantaged otherwise in that they are not familiar with the hoomin or surroundings the established pet has the upper hand already. Have you thought about maybe trying that, letting them live side by side for a couple of weeks to get used to each other a bit more and then bonding in a different area that is neutral, how big an area are you trying to bond in? I think it is important to keep it relatively small but, not tiny:wave:
