I’m so glad this worked out! I’ve been thinking about you and how stressful it must have been in the beginning there. And there I was all excited about my success. This is great news! It seems like it ended up working out a bit easier than we both expected. Hopefully neither of us has to go back...

Yes to the swapping droppings! What we did was set up two areas for each bunny to take turns living in. Without moving any of the items inside of each area, just swap the bunnies every day or multiple times a day. That way they share the litter box, food bowls, toys and everything with the other...

These photos melt me ❤️

I’m so sorry this all seems very frustrating. I’ve had issues with rescues in the past as well. It’s to no surprise that those rescues are overflowing with rabbits since they make it nearly impossible to get a rabbit from them. I hope this weekend goes well for you! Keep us updated!

Anyone else introduce a puppy or dog to your free roam rabbit before? We had our rabbit for 2 years before deciding to get a puppy this past June. I was pretty nervous about all the things. We decided a lab would be best considering it’s lower prey drive than most breeds and it’s friendly...

Have you asked that rescue if they will let you leave your rabbit there to see how she does with one of the males they’ve chosen as a potential bond for you? I’ve heard of rescues doing this. It might help your bunny feel more comfortable too since she won’t be in a place she’s feeling...

To officiate the successful bond of my daughters bunnies, my 6 year old daughter had a “wedding” today. (Nobunny was harmed in the process, costumes were worn for less than 5 minutes 😂)

It’s still pretty alarming! I’m always thinking, what if this never ends? But then he just pops back up after the dream and is totally normal 😂 he looks a little embarrassed afterwards

And posey just flops in our arms and lap because she’s a bunny like no other 💜

Sometimes Jets flips look at bit concerning 🤣 he’s totally fine though. He has LOTS of dreams

@critters checking up on your bonding to see how it’s going! Any progress with your bunnies?

Wow!! This could be my bunnies they’re so similar!! Such cuties ♥️

Also move the bunnies to the others cage every day to neutralize the space and get them used to each others smell. Keep everything inside the inclosure the same. Just switch the bunnies. I think this has really helped us.

My rabbits never mimic each other. They’ve been side by side for 4 months and I’ve never seen this happen once. There is always a bit of fur pulled during our bonding sessions. I see them bite each other and there is a big difference between dominance assertion fur pulling (which looks like...

Hey there! We’re just starting our bonding sessions over here too. I just responded on the other thread you commented on as well but I wanted to share more of what I think is helping us over here, because I was feeling like the bonding would never start with my two just last week as well. I’m...

Also, we scatter lots of greens and their favorite snacks all over the house and yard while they’re together just for some distractions and to make them extra happy. And about every 15 minutes or so I gather them both up either in a very small basket or on the floor and pet them both at the same...

They have lived side by side in separate enclosures for 4 months. We have only had them in each others company without the separation of a gate or cage for a little less than a week. A few minutes every day for about 5/6 days. Those are the “bonding sessions” I was telling about. The first...

Exactly! I’ve read dozens of bonding techniques, watched many videos and spoke to many people with bonding experience and ultimately what seems to be working best for us is nothing I’ve heard mentioned before! They are both altered. Our original bunny was neutered two years ago and our new girl...

This happened today after about a week of bonding sessions in all different types of environments and enclosure sizes. We ultimately decided that just letting both bunnies free roam (with the exception of the original bunny room for our first bunny) was the best way to hold bonding sessions. The...

Update: after reducing pellet amount to 1tbsp as per @Diane R advice, and reducing her fresh greens amount, I’m happy to report that Poseys cecotropes are appearing to be in the normal production realm! I’m going to slowly increase the amount on pellets to 1/4c over the next couple of weeks and...
