  I have a question…none of my bunnies are bonded and I hope to get the bonded within a few weeks. Would it be easier to bond a pair and then bond the third to the pair or should I bond all of them at once?
  
  All of my bunnies are really docile in the sense that they’ve never really shown aggression when I’ve had them out together/next to each other in cages, but I know bonding is a different experience. I’m just nervous because I’ve never bonded bunnies before so I want to make sure I do it right

  It’s best to not set a time limit. They will bond when they are ready to bond. It may take longer than a few weeks. Trios can be tricky.
  
  Trios can be done both ways: putting them all together in a neutral space or putting them together as pairs first. Personally, I would do the pairs first, do bonding sessions with the different pairs. That way, it’s easier to control if there is aggression and you can see which bunnies will be the most problem.
  
  I recommend doing some reading on bonding trios first. If you google “Rabbit Bonding Trios”, there are quite a few good links that come up.
  
  Are all your bunnies altered?
