I have a one year old female who had a VERY accidental litter of babies, once she gave birth to 6 of them I gave them a whole room so they would have enough space. I trained them since they were teeny tiny and raised them to be house bunnies. I found awesome homes for all of them but one. Nobody wants her because she is albino, and honestly doesn't make a very good first impression cuz she's a little stinker lol. But that's fine because the right person would love her anyways. Then she started going through the dreaded "rabbit puberty" and was awful!! (I forgot how terrible it was 🙈😒 so it wouldn't have been fair to try to give her to someone like that, nor would she let anyone near her lol.
So now she is 13 weeks old and seems to have come out of this funk. What just occurred to me is, she lives with her mother completely peacefully, they clean eachother, they play together, sleep together, they are very close. I would think maybe the baby is too young to bond but could the mother be bonding with her?! Or is it a two way street with that? Could they be bonding to eachother?! And what will happen if they are and I separate them?
I'm getting the mother spayed as soon as her urinary tract infection clears up, and her and my male are a perfect match. I know most of it is hormonal, but there's definitely more to it than that, and I'm absolutely going to spay/neuter them and bond them. I know they will be so happy together. But NOW i have these girls living peacefully causing no problems whatsoever, what if I bonded all three of them? This baby is SO well behaved around the house, she's totally potty trained, doesn't chew ANYTHING anymore that she's not supposed to, she has such a huge personality, she's really killing me trying to get rid of her lol. She's really not that much more work. I do not want three rabbits though, two is enough, and my boyfriend would probably lose his mind. But things are going so well with them right now. I just need someone to tell me her and her mother are not bonding so I can get rid of her lol!
