Hi there!!
So i do hope this is the proper thread to post this in, if not please let me know!!
So i have 1 1/2 year old neutered holland lop named Pippen, he's my baby and i adore him, i have had him since he was 8 weeks old and he has had free roam over my room this whole time.
Last week i rescued another bunny, turns out he's a lilac unaltered male holland lop that is somewhere around 5 years old.. He is super sweet, but has been kept in very bad situations before now, so i worry getting him neutered with his lower immune system and age would be to dangerous.
I have had the two in the bathtub together for 3x 20 minute intervals throughout the week and it would go really well each time, they would snuggle up and eat together, crawl all over each other and seem totally perfect and stress free. HOWEVER as soon as i put them ANYWHERE else- they will fight.
I just tried putting them together in a neutral cage, with only a litter box, hay and water, lined with fleece sheet and paper towel. They were fine and happy for about 10 minutes, then started fighting. Did i do it too fast to this step... or is this normal?
Percy kept mounting Pippen and just going all for it, and Pippen got fed up and got out from underneath and attached, this is what kept happening, so i kept pulling them apart with my hands and then let them sniff each other again and go from there....ullhair:
