Advice on bonding doe and buck?

Hi there,
First post here!
I've got an 8 week old buck(we'd arranged to have 2 but the other died before we'd collected him), and planning on getting him a friend. Well we've got the opportunity to house a 6 month old female rabbit. They will be seperate until she's spayed which will be in the next couple of weeks. Well do you think we should try bonding once she's recovered or until he's been neutered too?

Thanks in advance! :)
 
You will have to wait until around 6 weeks after he has been neutered too, as hormones will take a while to settle. It may be fine to start with but if you bonded them before he was neutered he would soon become randy and would spend most of his time humping her. This could lead to them fighting which could ruin everything :(
