  Haven’t been on in a while, but Leia and Reno made their move to South Carolina perfectly fine and they are happy here! However, I will be taking in a male Harlequin Lop that my friend can’t care for anymore, and I’d like to know if I will be able to add him to the happy little family or if Renie and Lei-bug will reject him since they’re already a happily married couple. New bun is not neutered yet but will be before I introduce him to them. Is there hope for a 1 female/2 male trio????

  If you can wait for one month after he’s neutered, that may help. His hormones will not be settled until then, and he may still have a surge of aggression which you don’t want. Let him get used to you, your home, and the smells of everyone in general for a while. You could even have him snuggle a surrogate stuffed bunny, then put it in with the pair so they become familiar with his scent before they are introduced. Several members have had trios, so it can work. You can do a keyword search for it in the bonding section to read older posts about others’ experiences. (Please don’t reply to old posts, however.)
