I think there is good and bad in keeping bunnies housed together.

If they are together I would think catching a illness would be hardercause you might not notice it right away or notice which one isill. You would want to make sure they are bondedreally good before leaving them alone with no supervision.

I have two bunnies who live on thier own and I am ok with that but ifthey lived together then I would only have one cage to clean.

Mostly I think it depends on the bunnies and what your most comfotable with.

If you decide to house them together they needto be bonded. You dont want fights. It is a longprocess to bond two rabbits, but the combos are best Male and Female(altered of course) Female and Female and Male to Male aslast. Some rabbits just wont live together in harmony, andothers will if you make the effort.

I am currently bonding two dwarfs together and it is going well, albeit I am not going to rush things.
