Hello, after my last rabbit Crystal died aged 11, I decided to adopt again. I have now had Bert and Ernie for a month. They are father and son, both neutered and about 4years old. They had been in the rescue about two months before I adopted them and before that they were rescued from a hoarder with lots of other animals. I let them out from their hutch/run every evening for a few hours and give them the run of the garden. Tonight when I did this Bert (the dad) started attacking Ernie. Lunging at him, chasing him and pulling out fur. I hoped initially it was just a tiff as this has never happened before. However, he was relentless with poor Ernie just trying to get away from him. I did try to clap my hands but this only made him stop for a second. I could see Ernie was panting and shaking so have had to separate them for this evening. I'm now concerned as to my next step.....do I try to rebond them in the morning? I have bonded rabbits before but wondered if anyone has any advice? I have checked both rabbits for injuries and it appears to just be fur that's missing. I didn't want to separate them but could see Ernie shaking so much I feared what would happen if I left them over night. I literally only have a set up for one pair of rabbits so fear I may have to re-home one if I can't get them back together
