  Just this week we adopted 2 6 mo old bunnies who have been together since birth. They are both unspayed but will be soon in the future. Just today during there play time, one started going over to the other rabbit sort of nose to nose. Then she would jump up almost on the others head! Our other rabbit has been smart enough to run away after the first time, but they have just been chasing each other around. It has all been fine up until now. Is it hormonal? The one that is being aggressive has also started chinning things. I’m scared it will undo there bond! Please help

  You often have to separate bunnies when they reach sexual maturity even if they’ve grown up together, then you rebond them after they’ve been desexed + have healed. The backwards humping you’ve seen is more about aggression and dominance than about procreation, but aggression and domination are to a great extent sexually driven behaviors.

  Unfortunately, most likely. Two hormonal females could really hurt each other.
  
  Are you able to house them separately but where they can still see and smell each other until they are spayed?
