rabbit bites out other person's fur?
One of my rabbits (TJ, male) keeps biting my other rabbit's fur (Luna, female)
There was a time when he used to bite her butt and chase her around the enclosure. That stopped, and now it's started again. Sometimes he manages to rip out her fur and then has it in his mouth. We just went to the vet, and everything's fine. The enclosure is 5 square meters. I know it's not big, but I mean, you need 2 square meters per rabbit, so I think that's enough, especially since they also have 8 square meters of outdoor space (during the day only).
I can't explain why he does that?
5sqm do not seem sufficient here.
2qm are outdated – you now tend to 3qm minimum. But they are Minimum!
Minimum dimensions are what a rabbit needs to live. It’s not kind enough. And if your rabbits bite each other, because they can’t get out of their way.
Why can’t you make the run out at night?
Hello!
This is actually quite normal to us in the normal case of clarification of the ranking order.
I think you’ve made it right so that it’s kept neutral first and only after 1 to 2 weeks in the precinct.
Pulling the hunting and fur out is normal, please don’t cut it out. Rabbits won’t always be the best friends, but in the normal case they will behave. Give them more time and let them settle this among you. I’ve had a lot of rabbits and some have hunted after months.
You’re holding her well, but you need to get out of your way.
I hope your male is castrated
Dear Greetings I hope I could help you
thanks the socialization is already a year ago
That’s normal. The most dominant thing with me in the stable is Luzi(5) and she hunts Marshmallow(2) also in phases. Often fur flies. But most of the time they are carrying themselves and even cuddling.
As long as they don’t bite the skin and bloody, everything is good. I had that when my five were six. There was Snowball (then 1 1/2) the one who had all the rest and had all the rabbits bitten bloody except for cumin (then also 1 1/2).
