So here's a little background. We got a male Holland Lop about a month ago and have been working on earning his trust. We were doing fairly well until a few days ago when he got an eyelash in his eye that was clearly bothering him. I wrapped him up in a towel and used some saline to rinse it out. His eye is now totally fine but he runs when I try to touch him. What can I do? I obviously had to help him but he's holding a grudge. He was already pretty distrustful when we first got him so this has been very discouraging.
On top of that we also got a female Holland Lop a few days ago and at first she seemed super sweet. It was very obvious that the lady we got her from had worked hard to make sure she was used to being handled. However over the course of the past 48 hrs she has gotten progressively more skittish and aggressive. She's nipping a lot and actually bit down hard on my sons finger and drew blood. He didn't try to pick her up or do anything that should have caused that. He was bleeding off and on for hours. What am I doing wrong? I just want my bunnies to be happy and enjoy my company. I'm trying not to overwhelm them but clearly I, doing something terribly wrong! Please help me!
