Tips on introducing a new bunny

[amundb]

Any tips on introducing a new bunny?We've let them see each other through the cages, through the fence, andlet them be together just once to introduce them. Magnetstarted humping Smores, so that was the end of that session.Any tips on getting Magnet to accept Smores as a permanentfixture? They're never out at the same time, but their cagesare in the same room. Smores has been going over to Magnet'scage and chewing on the bars, maybe like he wants to play with theother guy. Magnet wants nothing to do with him, and tried totake a swipe at him through the cage. Magnet's also pissy atBrian, for bringing the other bunny in.

Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

See http://rabbitsonline.net/view_topic.php?id=17504&forum_id=6&page=2 for pics of Smores!

Are you prepared to house them separately if it doesn't work?

Also, are they fixed?

Good luck!

Magnet was neutered last week, Smores is tooyoung to do that yet. After Smores gets neutered in a couplemonths, then we'll start with the real bonding...just thought theycould get accustomed to each other in the meantime.

Ah yes, I just read your blog

I think that should definitely help, having them close together, they will get accustomed to each others scents etc.
