This is not something done very exactly as most pet rabbits are mixed breeds, so growth trajectory will not really be predictable nor standard considering any two NDs or Holland Lops or Flemish Giants will, in the background, have other genetics at play. Even show standards for breed weights are arbitrarily set.

The move might actually be really helpful because you will have all new territory at your new place. If they don’t fight in the car you could even have them ride to the new place together.

Another thing to try is a larger space. I’ve always had terrible luck with small spaces, with things tending to escalate to fights much more quickly. So I…[Read more]

We brought Circe home on April 27, so it hasn’t been terribly long. We’re in the process of moving, so I’d love to do as much bonding as we can before then but understand I might not get far before.

Not eating or drinking is not usually associated with hormones or puberty… although if he is only interested in mating then I guess it could happen?

I’ve been around 9 year old un-neutered buns who just want to circle and mount my feet, so I wouldn’t really count on it calming down. The best thing to do would be to get him neutered.

If he…[Read more]

He probably had hormones before now. Just because the testicles didn’t drop until later does not mean he wasn’t getting a full dose of testosterone. Some bunnies will just ease into the behaviors, becoming more and more sexually frustrated.

Will this continue? Most likely. Will he eventually calm down? Probably. It takes time, but most intact…[Read more]
