Post bonding apathy and training

[Sunnybunny]

I wasn’t sure if this went in bonding or behavior, but they’re bonded so… two bunnies, both fixed and adopted. Mr. muscles, mini Rex, 4years old., came from a breeder before surrendered, I had him a year, just him and me. And madam Maxine, black and white, 1year, got her a few months ago, raised as a house bunny before surrendered.

Before I got Maxine, mr. Muscles would let me pet him for hours. He even fell completely asleep a few times–dream twitches and all. I wouldn’t pick him up and he wouldn’t Cuddle with me, but that’s fine, I sit in the floor and hed come up to see what I was up to. But I wasn’t always home a lot so I was worrid he was getting depressed or going a little bonkers. He has free roam of most of the place, he’d spend a lot of time under the couch chewing up carpet and cardboard I’d shove under there. Anyway I got Maxine and I knew things would change. He was probably not socialized a lot with humans to begin with plus now I would have competition. But he won’t even let me pet him without getting up and leaving. im trying to be patient, bribe him with food, not pet him all the time….On top of that if I’m trying to enteract with her a lot he get jealous and nippy with her…..

Also I wnat to try to do some training. Like come to their names, maybe try the leash, I’m not sure how to train them each together but seperate. Like teach her command independent of him and vice versa, does anyone know a good YouTube channel or website for advice? Or experience with training?

I need advice! Mr muscles is multing and he won’t let me groom him, he looks a little crazy right now

Thank you!.
