Hi everyone.
About a week ago i posted about my two rabbits who were bonded, fighting. Long story short - my friends rabbits came over ( she assured me it was going to be fine :/ ) and everything went well until she left and my female and male rabbits starting fighting. (Lunging, nipping, chasing) For a week now I've been very consistently re-bonding them, started with a laundry basket, then the bathtub, then the floor of the bathroom. They were grooming each-other and cuddling, lots of times both were laying flat down asleep together. I thought everything was fine so I put them back into their old hutch that they used to live, together... and then the same thing happened. Lunging, nipping and chasing. I thought i had gone too fast (even though they seemed perfectly fine in the bathroom ) so I re-did the bonding cycle. Today I put them again in their hutch... and more fighting.
Why is this? They are perfect happy bunnies together in the bathroom but when i put them in the hutch, they hate each-other!!
Please, please help. I'm so scared for my babies.
Thank you, Mali.
