Rabbit socialization?

Hi,

I have 6 rabbits that live outside in 5 hutches (mother and daughter are together). Since we're getting new, larger hutches in a month, we want to let the rabbits move into a larger one, two at a time.
Mother and daughter will stay together. I'm not sure if that will work with the other four (two neutered males and two females). The males don't get along well with each other, so we want to pair one neutered male with one female. The older male and the older female get along, but there might be problems with the two younger ones.

Which is why we've been considering putting three of them together (mother and daughter with the daughter's father (who's since been neutered), and the other three). I just don't know how to get them used to each other, and whether three groups of two or two groups of three would be better.

Hello

Two threesome mines are better. At 2 threesome pits it can happen that a rabbit to the outsider will form rabbit couples. I’ve experienced it myself. Remember that a stable is not enough two rabbits always need at least 6 m2.

build a large secured enclosure, per animal at least 3 sqm. To this end, a weather-protected isolated stable / stable instead of putting it in much too small stables.

Why don’t you pack them all together? You may say that rabbits A and B are not tolerated, but together with rabbits C,D,E and F, the ranking may look completely different.

In addition:

The males aren’t intertwined, so we’ll ever have a box with a hesin.

What do you think? Recently, your rabbits were not castrated.

They have to quarantine for 6 weeks. Otherwise all your wives are pregnant.
