  Hi binkybunny!
  
  I have two bonded bunnies who I love dearly, but thanks to recent life circumstances I haven’t been able to spend much time socializing them. They are uncaged, have a large bunny proof room to themselves and have plenty to do- I give them new boxes and chew toys often. They get daily care, food, water, litter change, hay, veggies ect, but I don’t spend much time sitting with them. I should have more time to spend with them soon, but my question is, is it a problem that they aren’t getting social time with me? Other than becoming less tame, is it harmful for them to not have much human interaction?
  
  Thanks!

  As long as they still have one another, it shouldnt be an issue as long as you arnt ignoring them

  Yes i agree, while it’s obviously better if you can spend as much time with them as possible, because they are bonded it’s not so much an issue as if you had a single bun which would get very lonely and needs much more daily interaction.
