Hello, so unfortunately my male rabbit & the father too the 3 kits *now 1 year old* passed away in the emergency vets last night. It was the most horrific thing I've ever seen.
So when the 3 kits were born & about 4/5 weeks old we started interacting dad with them too, he was great with them.. then one day started too be aggressive towards them, so we made the decision too keep the 3 kits *binky, blippi & peppa* when they were 12 weeks together & let Daisy & lola be back together.
All was fantastic until my boy got GI stasis & died very quickly in the vets last night, the vet thinks it was a blood clot (he had an abscess on his neck which was getting treated with antibiotics & was due too get an op on Wednesday) with how fast he passed (within a minute, with all normal vitals), so now my daisy is just looking so lost & lonely.
I read abit up on it & it was said too rebond her sooner rather than later. So last night we let them all out in the living room, daisy was definitely the dominant one, the other 3 *her actual littler* were very submissive too her, there was a little fur flying but they were cleaning, laid down & ignoring each other too (good signs right?).
So, am I doing this too soon? I'd hate myself if I thought I wasn't giving her the right too be sad/greive. She genuinely did look much happier being in the mix last night with the others than she is on her own.. she has never been on her own. So if anyone has any input in if I'm doing the right thing, what too watch out for, doing it the right way etc.
She has been on her own all day today again, in her pen.. she just sits in the corner on the blanket looking lonely, I've added 2 teddy bears too make her feel more comfortable. I can't get them all out through the day as I have 2 boisterous children. I just want the best for them.
They do all live in a separated shed, lola & daisy were in one side & binky, blippi & pepper in the other. It's all kitted out, I just couldnt bare the thought of her being in one side on her own, that's why I've kept her in, she is eating, drinking, weeing & pooping.
Thank you for any input, please don't put anything overly nasty as my heart can't take it, I'm still a crying mess over my baby passing!

. All in together for the past 2 days.. night & day. No fights, pulling, chasing etc. They are all snuggling, grooming e/other, eating & drinking with e/other. Im so worried about every little thing with watching my boy pass over. Could you tell me if this poop looks normal, this is just a mixture of all 4 rabbits. I'm an anxious Annie.
