How adorable! How old are they?
Is the area around their hutch available for them to play in also?

Wonderful! They are just too cute!
There is loads of info in the library section for you. Since you state that you are new with bunnies, I would like to mention (in case you are unaware) that your boys are approaching the hormonal stage. You will need to keep an extra eye on them because it is not uncommon for buns at this stage to begin fighting each other. Regardless of how affectionate they may be at this time, they can turn vicious towards each other once those hormones kick in.
If you begin to see signs like this, you will need to separate them. And if this happens, it's possible to try to bond them again after they're neutered.
Didn't mean to write so much... just wanted to warn you of what might come.

Oh, thats not good
I heard bout them fighting, but when I put them together they became best buddies, so I thought they we're ok.
I better get them done then. Is it ok to get them done now,at this age? I guess the earlier the better.
Thank you. Yeah, they love the yard, always running around doing stupid things lolWelcome. Cute bunnies, glad they get to run around in the yard.

This page talks about when they can be neutered and has some good tips on finding a rabbit-savvy vet:

You might want to consider either having them done together and/or keeping them together for the vet trips so they stay together and one doesn't come back with strange or unfamiliar smells.

They´re both such cute little chaps. Yes, I echo everyone else, you should get them done as soon as you can and, even though, they get on fine now, fights can break out through hormones.
Good luck and keep us posted.:nod

Welcome to the Forum! It really is chock full of good information and friendly bunny lovers too Your boys are sweet!!
I have two bonded boys (apparently same sex pairs are harder to bond), although I did get my second one thinking "he" was a "she!" Since you've had your two together from a young age, I think they will stay friends. Good luck!
