OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

I’ve dismantled one of the outside runs, and used four of the panels to give Gina an extension to her space in the dining room. She’s happy, Jenny and Pippi not so impressed!
As soon as it was done, I put some pellets, which both girls go mad for, over the floor, in such a way that they had to eat almost as if they weren’t separate. Hopefully, over time, they will get on better, as they get used to eating along side each other, but if not, at least Gina has a fairer share of space, and can jump in and out of her cage.
After the pellets were gone, Gina tucked into some hay, and Jenny had a good drink.

Jenny seems to have got over being so cross with me from last night’s re-arranging, and Pippi was closer to his normal appetite this morning, so maybe the re-arranging has helped him accept Rusty won’t be back?
I let Gina through to the living room for her morning floor time. Once she settled down in a hay box to eat, I popped her back into her bit of the dining room, and we promptly got synchronized water drinking from the girls, while Pippi thankfully ate some hay…
Cue living room time for Pippi and Jenny, while I took these two shots, to show more clearly the new divide. The run section is cleverly hinged, so I can open it for easyish access.
Hopefully, they will get more used to being in close proximity, and will eventually be possible to bond as a trio.

I’ve added a hay rack to the set up, in such a way that all three bunnies are sharing it, and all three have to put a bit of effort into getting the ‘good’ hay.
the girls seem to be enjoying stretching their legs, Pippi is being cheeky and either waiting for a good piece to fall, or even snatching a bit from Jenny’s mouth!
