I think newly bonded I would just scatter them to be safe ?
I have bonded Sooty and Oreo today but need to give them some pellets - Do I use a bowl or just scatter them - both get VERY excited over pellets and I dont want them to fight over them!![]()

Charlie the bunny
Puddy & Buggly & Sabrina the cats
Willow the cockatiel
Rhod & Ryan & Ed & Brad & Wayne the rats
I scatter feed them, it try to put it in different places too so they have to 'work' for it
I agree. Scatter or hand feed them![]()

Can't you place down two bowls, one in front of each bun at the same time and make sure there's a little extra food, to prevent a fight over it?
ok that was successful - I scattered a pile each end and luckily they went either end so there was no fighting phewww...
Just gotta get through the night now..
This bunny bonding is exhausting![]()

I think i've finally got feeding sussed! My two have been bonded for four months now and Ollie is a complete pelletmonster! He will eat about three or four pellets at a time while Amber will daintily eat one at a time in a ladylike fashion. I did hand feed them up until three weeks ago so i knew who was getting what but recently they have started to scoff at the same pace (sort of) and will eat from seperate bowls side by side. I just watch and make sure Ollie doesn't pinch many of Amber's pellets![]()

My pair have a cat dish with two depressions, yet they feed out of the same bowl.
As i have just (fingers crossed it stays this way) bonded a trio, I thought I'd put an extra bowl down just in case but all three shoved their heads into the same dish again
You could try a bowl and if there are any signs of a problem take it out and scatter feed. Just keep doing this until they both accept the bowl I would say![]()
