Aren't you keeping the two Giants together?
I suppose the only thing you could sensibly do is feed the Rabbit who eats Vegetables/Grass separate.
Will you be introducing Vegetables/Grass to the Giant? If so maybe you could wait until then and then try bonding them.
Bear in mind if you bond before you neuter hormones could kick in at a later date and cause a few problems

not sure what to do really! the original idea was to get the giants together as house buns, but obviously they are not gonna be able to go together for about a year because of the neutering, also i dont know if keeping them in cages next to each other will drive them mad? i dont have indoor cages as such i use storage cubes. will that work? because i dont really have the space for two separate buns living in the house, oh what do i do! :roll:

You can neuter Giants from six to nine months old I believe. If you have a Rabbit savvy Vet I imagine he/she would be able to give you a better idea. A year seems a long time to leave them before you neuter.
I dont see any reason why you cant keep them side by side in seperate cages. When they reach sexual maturity you will be getting them neutered anyway.

my vet said around nine months! i just did not know if it would be fair to keep them on there own that long, and they still may not bond after that

If you keep them next to each other in seperate cages they will be able to keep each other company.
