  My two male bunnies are about 4 months old, and I was just wondering if I should neuter them , they are brothers and have been unseperable since they were born so they get along quite well, they do try to hump eachother every now and then so thats my only concern about not neutering them I just want some advice on the fact that their brothers and have got along very well so far i just do not know if i should neuter them or not ?

  Neuter them when you want, as long as you are sure they are males. You dont want a litter. After neutering, once their horemones die out, you can try bonding. Bonding is easier when a bunny is fixed.

  Babies love everyone. It doesn’t matter if they are strangers or siblings. Then, one day, the hormone fairy comes and bunnies who loved each other suddenly do not. Fights can result. I’m not trying to scare you. I just want you to be aware that is happens and it happens pretty often around here. If bunnies get into a nasty fight, permanent bonding in the future may be compromised. At 12 weeks, you are seeing the beginnings of puberty. Be prepared for the switch to be flipped any time now. They can turn on a dime, and if they do, you will need to separate them until they are neutered.
  
  If their testicles have dropped, you can have them neutered now. And, with any luck, they can easily transition into an adult bond with each other with minimal interruption.
