In terms of what rabbit breed would be best, there are no valid patterns in bonding success nor temperament that is going to make one breed better than another. Any breed is going to probably have equal variability in bonding compatibility, as it comes down to your rabbit’s personality and the personality of the other rabbit which ultimately…[Read more]

If the living room is neutral, I think it’d be fine to start in that space then.

Re: separation, you could potentially use the space you’re using currently for bonding, that way no ownership occurs in the new bonding space.

Chinning is something all rabbits naturally do in order to “claim” things, so whether it’s in bonding, pre-bonding, or just every day life, chinning is a natural rabbit behavior they’ll do when interacting with things!

You guys, I am so excited! I have spent TWO YEARS getting the black and white rabbit to be calm around each other and look at them now! This is their first date in non-neutral territory and it’s amazing! They have 2 entire pens hooked together too which is by far the largest area I’ve ever been able to put them in. Yay yay I’m so happy! They…[Read more]

Thank you, Wick. Sorry, I should have mentioned that we’ve doing bonding dates for about a month, with 2 weeks of pre-bonding before that. I switched to 24/7 because they were getting on so well and showing lots of positive behaviours, and no fighting.

The problem is I can’t expand the current space anymore and they both seem a bit on edge after…[Read more]

Bonding can take literal weeks/months sometimes. There will be better and worse days, and it’s all a part of the rabbits figuring things out.

If you/your partner will be away for work, I…[Read more]

Some rabbits don’t mount. My rabbits never mounted or humped each other.

Ah thank you! We survived our first night! I did wake up a few times to the pitter patter of bunny feet. I’m not sure if they were chases or zooms (cant see much without contacts) but I tried to shut it down just in case.

I’m delighted to report that this morning Wolfie jumped right into the litter box with little missy. She’s tried to jump in wi…[Read more]

I’m not sure if others can see the video, but I can’t for some reason. To clarify, the vet says your bun is physically fine and it’s not megacolon? If so, what type of hay are you feeding? I once got a mixture that contained orchard hay which my buns tummy didn’t do well with. Also, make sure the water is clean! Sometimes water bowl looks clean b…[Read more]
