          She is a vocal rabbit. When she nips, push her head down disapprovingly. — How does Mocha take it? Lulu is at the point where her first shock over meeting Mocha has passed and she is telling him that she won’t have his humping anylonger. Is she really aggressive or just sending him running from her?

              OK. Mocha 200, you know your job here: allow your rabbits to interact in the bonding sessions but don’t let them fight. You are doing great. Some rabbits are noisy,they grunt or growl or squeal. It is part of communicating with the other rabbit. My Neigey is like that also. I think you will see Lulu really come out of her shell and show some feistier behaviors typical of female buns but Mocha being relaxed about it is really helpful. If he understands her, that she doesn’t want to be humped, or that she wants him to back off, it is a succesful communication between them. Will he groom her upon her pushing his head into him?

                  she bites him or nips him? If she nips him, it’s fine. Nipping/fur-plucking in bonding sessions is quite normal. Just make sure Mocha does not get hurt; a bloodshed is not acceptable during bonding. Will your mother help you and make a video of them during a session to post here?

                      you can use another video hosting site such as photobucket if you don’t have or don’t want a google (youtube) account. You could make an account in mocha’s name. Like ‘mocha bunny’ or something. that’s all you need for photobucket

                                        here you go. I was able to get the embed code from your video by following your link and then clicking on ‘share’. At the bottom it gave me the embed code to paste into here.
