  so I only have one bunny her name is Hapu and I know bunnys get lonely so I was going to get another one any tips on how to introduce them and would it matter if they weren’t the same type of bunny I have a lion head but the breeder I get them from doesn’t breed lion heads anymore so would it be okay if I got a different type of bunny or would it bother her if its not the same breed if I have to I can always drive a couple city’s over to get the same breed but I just want to know if they have to be the same breed of bunny

  Breed, age and gender don’t matter to bunnies. All that matters is that both bunnies are spayed/neutered. Check out the bonding section as it’s a very complex process (you can’t just put two rabbits together)

  Hapu is only 2 months old at the moment, right? You’re going to have to wait until she is at least 6 months old and ready to be spayed. After that I would recommend adopting an already neutered male bunny of any age and have them live side by side for a month and a half as Hapu recovers from her spay. Make sure they can’t reach each other through their enclosures. After the a month and a half like that has gone by you can start the bonding process.
  
  Size also doesn’t matter in most cases, it just makes feeding a bit more complicated. At my local shelter we once had a tiny Holland Lop bonded with a rather large New Zealand White.
