Hello everyone,
New bun mum here and just thought I would post to get some advice from you lovely experienced lot.
We got two boy rabbits a couple of weeks ago. They’re now 11 weeks and all has been well but today when I went to open their cage this morning I noticed they were having a bit of a scruff and there was fur in the cage.
I put them out in their grass run and one was chasing the other round and round and again the fur flew
Obviously I will be getting them neutered when they are old enough but is this just a bonding/dominance establishing thing that they’ll sort out or do I separate then until after they’re neutered and try and rebond them then? They have a two story cage so I could always keep one up top and one below for now.
Note to add when I took them for their first injections and health check the vet wasn’t 100% on sex and I’m taking them back again to be resexed in a couple of weeks. So again I wonder if maybe one is female
Any advice would be welcome, I want them to be happy and I don’t want them to injure each other and I just want to do the best I can.
They’re back in their normal daily enclosure now and seem to not be speaking to each other at the moment…
Thank you for reading.
