I posted this here, because the breeders would have the most experience regarding this question.
I have two rabbits. One neutered male, the female is not.
Tonight, was the first time I introduced them to each other.
The male would chase the female, then the female would lay down. Then the male would hump her, I'm guessing the male was doing this to display his dominance?
Anyways, the male humped her 2-3 times, but then the female obviously got annoyed, because she started biting him and ripping chunks of fur off him.
As soon as she did that I split them up, then a few minutes later, I tried to introduce them again to each other. The same thing happend, the female bit the male, and the male started to yelp.
So, I split them up for good and they are now back in their own pens.
I want to bond my rabbits for companionship purposes.
Do they hate each other now?
Does the female hate the male is that why she is biting him?
Is the male too controlling, always trying to hump her? He's fixed, so I don't get why he's always trying to hump her.
Maybe she needs to be fixed? She lays down willingly often, expecting to be humped.
