  I have two male bunnies I got recently and i’m not sure if i should get them fixed at the same time, and if they can be housed together, or if there will be any issues with doing so

  When they are fixed and have healed (wait like a month), they can be bonded so they can live together. The most important thing for now is that they don’t get into any fights before they are spayed. Rabbits hold grudges. Right after a neuter, a rabbit experiences hormonal fluctuations, and that can make the bunny aggressive, territorial and/or prone to marking (pee and poop), so you should wait until the hormones have died down before you start bonding sessions.
  
  It’s good to have them fixed at the same time because that’s less trouble for you. If you’re caring for one newly neutered bun you might as well care for two – most boys don’t have any difficulties bouncing back from a neuter. It’s an advantage to have both buns ready for bonding at the same time.

  Hi
  I got my two male Buns fixed at the same time, they were around 4 months old, the rampant behaviour & spraying stopped instantly, I had to split them up but not for long,they’re fine now 5 months on, occasionally they have their moments but not very often,
