Since the tunnel scuffle I wanted to really work out the kinks in my rabbit quartet. I noticed recently that Lint and Neigey no longer have the avoidance issues of the past where Lint would avoid being in a very crowded situation with Neigey such as in a litterbox. Neigey used to bump Lint out with a little grunt and a stomp.
They are very relaxed now even in a crowded place, after one entire year of having been bonded. Neigey’s bulliness toward Lint had peaked after Mops went away, but now it has completely disappeared. I can’t say why with certainty, but my guess is that it has to do with Deirdra. I am convinced that Deirdra’s dominance over Neigey is because of Neigey’s bullying Lint whom Deirdra adores. If this makes sense… Deirdra kept putting Neigey in his place because Neigey was trying to boss around Lint.
So I felt that it should be possible to mend some of the issues between Deirdra and Neigey also.
For a couple of days, only for the daylight hours, I trioed up Neigey with Duffy and Deirdra, a trio I never focused on.
It worked wonders.
no, I did not let them have the cherished binkybunny tunnel. It’s too soon. I don’t want to take the chance. But I made a hidey house that Deirdra can’t fit in, it’s only for the mini rexes.

Deirdra was asleep and in her dream she was chattering her teeth. She twitched her ears and lips too but I cut some of that out because the video was just too long with just sleeping bunnies.
Neigey is a marshmellow, I never noticed until you posted that. I don’t think he would like to be immersed in cocoa though… LOL.Groups are different. As a pair, Lint/Neigey and Deirdra/Neigey had been fine all along but once placed in the group things changed. Deirdra especially is a much less fierce rabbit if she is just paired. But it is easy to spot what goes on if you observe them.
Thanks for watching!

It’s amazing that dynamics change that much just because of one rabbit, and even more amazing that you could tell which one it was 
he is so fluffy! and I was shocked that he flopped next to miss bossy!!
