    Your patience and willingness to devote SO much time to these lovely bunbuns is inspiring. Great explanations of body language and insights into natural bunny behavior. You're a great bunny advocate. Thank you!

    Thank you for the super detailed video. I'm a first time rabbit owner and trying to bond a pair who just don't seem to want to cooperate. It's really reassuring to see a video where the rabbits have a few hiccups to show that it can work out!

      Yeah, I might be getting two male Rabbits, and I'm super nervous about them bonding with each other, and I know one of my rabbits had history of getting along with males and he's not neutered, so hopefully it will be okay, but I'm still nervous (they are both going to get neutered before they even become introduced to each other)

    I hope I have the patience to bond all 7 of my buns when the time comes. I have 6 boys and 1 girl so things are bound to get hectic but this video really showed me that with enough time, patience, and courage it's possible to house multiple rabbits together. Thank you, and I hope all is well for you and your rabbits.

      Rianna Talento was it scary at first? I’m trying to bond mine using this method but it is not going well, they attacked each other at first sight and they are both being so aggressive, yet both of them had flopped within the first fifteen minutes! So i’m very confused and i don’t know if my bunnies with bond, thoughts?

      @@carissasammons3394 Hi! Yes it was pretty scary at first. My girl, Luna, kept chasing and attacking my boy, Theo, which caused him to retaliate. However for me, the fighting only lasted for a day. The next day I put the bunnies in a carrier for a stress bonding car ride which helped TREMENDOUSLY. There wasn't anymore fighting after that. After the car ride I would put them in half a bath tub and then increase their space if they continued to do well. I don't mean to promote my videos, but I actually have a video documenting the whole process - th-cam.com/video/QU2mQnxmlxI/w-d-xo.html I never want to be that annoying person that promotes their videos but I want to help you as much as I can! ❤️

    Wow, you actually did it! Thank you so much for the comment you sent me 5 months ago about me losing my 6 rabbits, I appreciate it. Please take this advice, do not get too many more rabbits as I got loads of them and the more you have the higher the risk. I am only saying this for your bunnies own health and I do not want you to go through the horrible experience I went through💔. Keep posting videos though, and I am SOOO happy that you got home I was so worried. Your bunnies have such a natural life and please, carry on posting. I am crying A little because groups of rabbits remind me of the ones I lost😭. I love you so much and you look after your bunnies so well.💕

    I'm struggling with bonding mine, it is terrifying and I get so much anxiety. They used to be very close but we never knew they were two males so they started fighting. We got them neutered and that but I'm trying to get them back together. They still groom at each other but I think they cant figure out who's more dominant. Thanks for this video!

      Did you ever get them bonded again? Or have you had to separate? I've always known males and females to get along better than same sex pairs. I did have a mother and daughter pair who were bonded, but I think it was mostly due to the daughter being her baby.

    • @caitlinm4783

      Maybe try again but not in spring time as rabbits are naturally more hormonal in the spring, so this makes it harder to bond.

      @juliannehamill2540 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@tamielynne7374 Sadly, I never did. I figured it wasnt worth either of them getting injured and there was no guarantee that if I bonded them they wouldnt just start fighting again. Although I highly doubt I could have bonded them. Instead I have separated them, but they are right beside each other and can groom and lay against each other still only with wire to keep them both safe. They seem pretty happy with it and I know it isnt the best but it will do! I dont want them hurting or killing each other :)

    This is amazing that you got all those rabbits together and they continue to stay together. We have 3 females that are sisters and we got them when they were 7 weeks old. At 5 months we had them spayed and that is when all the trouble began. The sweetest rabbit turning into a fighting machine and previously she was the lowest ranked one that was normally picked on. Had to keep all 3 of them separated and it was terrible when trying to reintroduce them. The veterinarian suggested a slow process that they have brief visits and we have tried this method for almost 4 months now. Two of them get along well now but the third one still wants to fight. We have kept them all close together in the same hutch but with a divider to keep them from fighting and now 2 of them stay in the same area together. Seems like many different opinions on how to bond them so we are a bit confused about which is best. The Lady from the rabbit society said we were crazy to get 3 females but at the time it didn't seem like a problem since they were all sisters anyway and they were great together until their surgery. Are we trying to do something that will never work? Do you have any suggestions that could help us to get all 3 of them like they were before? They seem frustrated and unhappy now and we wish that we didn't get them spayed in the first place at this point.🙁

    Great video but one suggestion (not to do with bonding) you should really switch to water bowls. Water bottles break quickly and can actually lead to dehydration in rabbits. Usually rabbits aren’t capable of getting a good amount of water out of bottles which obviously as I said leads to dehydration. Just a recommendation for you!

    I know this is an old video but it’s one of the best I’ve seen on bonding rabbits and I’m working on getting a second rabbit to bond with my doe and was wondering, do you need to keep them together the whole bonding process or is there a way you can bond them for a few hours a day and then keep them separate the rest of the time while you do things like eating & sleeping? Also any other bonding tips would be deeply appreciated!!!
    A few questions I’ve thought of while I watch:
    -When you slept in your own bed did you have someone else watching them or were they unsupervised?
    -since my rabbit is currently on her own and when I get another they won’t be used to my scent, would it be smarter to let someone else more neutral and experienced to do the bonding or would I still be able to do it?
    -how do you know when the bonding is solidified?

    When they put their head down it’s not a submissive thing it’s actually the opposite. It is an attempt to get the other rabbit to groom them.

    • @mypamperedpets
      @mypamperedpets  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi! It can be both 😊 Rabbits can be confusing but this is the research I've read:
      'A top bunny will request grooming from a subordinate by laying her head flat on the ground close to the other rabbit, often pushing her head under his chin. She may return the favour at times as an act of affection but generally speaking the top bunny gets much more grooming from her subordinate(s).
      Confusingly, rabbits also lay their heads on the ground to show submission and you may often see subordinate rabbits doing this but the usual response from top bunny is either to ignore or give a quick ear or eye lick.'
      Primrose is definitely top bun now haha and when she puts her head down it is definitely because she is boss 😂 However in the bonding situation I could see she was nervous and was putting her head down to show no threat. Thanks for the info though!

    I just watched your video because I had a colony of 5 bonded Holland Lops. Mom, dad, and 3 sisters. Only dad is fixed. But one of the bonded sisters bit the other, resulting in 12 stitches. We kept her in a cage, always in the same room with her colony until she healed and got her stitches out. But now I need to know how to bond her back in the colony? The vet said if I just throw her back in, and it happened again, it could be fatal. She told me to get rid of the one that bit. 😪 But she is still bonded with the other 3. Now It seems like the 4 won't accept the one who was bit. I know I need to get the females fixed and they have hit sexual maturity, which may be what broke the bond? They had all been bonded, laying together, kissing each others head for 7 months. Now what? Should I try this method?

    I absolutely love your bonding videos! I’m currently trying to bond my pair. It’s the first time I’ve tried bonding adult rabbits. I’m day five and they are doing well still some biting every now and then. I’m worried about one of them as he is used to free roaming and he seems quite sad in the small space. Any tips for letting him have a run without effecting the bond? Or making him happier in the space? Thank you!:))

      Thank you! 😁 Both bonds worked out for me so I wouldn’t say one was better than the other. I just did what was best for each situation. With the 5 I already knew the boys hated one another so needed to get them in the smallest space possible. I think it just depends on the rabbits. Probably best to start with something small though and just keep extending as and when needed :) Good luck with bonding!

      Ah thats the risk with getting another! What you could do though is go to a reputable rescue and ask to adopt on the premise that the new rabbit bonds with your pair. If it doesn’t work out they will go back to the rescue but make sure it’s a good rescue that is happy for you to attempt this.

    I’ve recently rescued two rabbits, initially believed to be females that then started fighting, despite growing up for the last 5 months together they started fighting, so I booked them into the vet to get spayed which later determined they were both males, I’ve had them separate for the last week prior surgery but have been sharing a room separated by a cage so they can get used to each other again. Today I put them together for the first time as they were laid flopping next to each other separated by the cage but then instantly started chasing and biting each other. I’m completely new to the bonding and rabbit ownership so any advice would be greatly appreciated

    • @mypamperedpets
      @mypamperedpets  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi! It can be both 😊 Rabbits can be confusing but this is the research I've read:
      'A top bunny will request grooming from a subordinate by laying her head flat on the ground close to the other rabbit, often pushing her head under his chin. She may return the favour at times as an act of affection but generally speaking the top bunny gets much more grooming from her subordinate(s).
      Confusingly, rabbits also lay their heads on the ground to show submission and you may often see subordinate rabbits doing this but the usual response from top bunny is either to ignore or give a quick ear or eye lick.'
      Primrose is definitely top bun now haha and when she puts her head down it is definitely because she is boss 😂 However in the bonding situation I could see she was nervous and was putting her head down to show no threat. Thanks for the info though!

    Thank you so much for posting this, it gives me hope! So I had a trio of bonded rabbits, two males who were bonded (Bun and Marshmallow) and then a female (Coco) who I added later. They lived together for months, then one day just like with yours they fought and Bun broke the bond with the other two. Unfortunately, I lost my sweet Bun a few months ago in a freak accident. So I had three for awhile, Coco and Marshmallow, and then my other rabbit Milk who was never introduced to the others because of a neutering issue (vet swore he didn’t have balls yet he was clearly still being hormonal, turns out he had one testicle still which was promptly removed). Recently, I found my self with a second female, BunBao, who was a originally my sisters. She was spayed about a month ago.
    So I’d like to bond all four of them together but I’m wondering if it would be easier to bond Milk and Bunbao first, and then bond those two with the already bonded Coco and Marshmallow? Or do you thinks it’s best to try all four together at once? Any tips or opinions are appreciated!

Boy 2 has struggled to accept her and at first (I did 6 weeks of playdates before the 24/7 method) he would lunge and bite her. Now he wants to sit with her but she runs off. On day 2 girl bun licked boy 2 (she has never licked any of them until this point), so it seemed progress was made however she won't stay near either boy for long. She just doesnt seem to want to interact although they are all now tolerating eachother. Do I just wait until they start connecting?
