Glad to hear Nellie is better!

Changing seasons can trigger hormonal behaviors in bunnies, even ones that are spayed/neutered (they still have their adrenal glands). That being said, if this doesn’t resolve soon, I would suggest looking into other causes. Bunnies have been known to hump when they are experiencing discomfort in their bladder, for example. Or they can be like one of my bunnies who was a stress humper.

I wouldn’t suggest separating them. If things don’t escalate beyond a lunge, then I wouldn’t be overly concerned. Obviously it’s good to keep an eye to make sure things don’t get out of hand. Would a surrogate work in this case? Glenn gets all humpy humpy and you redirect him to a stuffed animal?
