Forgive me for posting a lot lately but I want to learn a lot for my rabbits.
Previously we thought the he was a she, and I think we're pretty sure the lop is a female.
What caught my attention is that ever since they've been separated they've been at each other's throat when one is out while I clean their cages. I use storage grids to fence off each other from getting to close but the male gets extremely mad when the lop gets near, he grunts a lot, he tries to box and has lunged at her and she doesn't even care. Recently she has been showing signs of hitting puberty (pooping outside of the litterbox and on my bed), and she does grunt at the male when he's near her cage but not nearly has bad, she just tried to rip her cage up out of frustration.
I would expect a male to not mind sharing space with a female, so is this normal for opposite sexes or could we have mis-sexed again? Because the attitude makes it seem like the lionhead is actually a female from how territorial it is.
