So we got a new bunny! Well were trying...We put Davey and Delilah into the kitchen (neutral) with him and it went ok, Davey liked him she didnt pay to much attention to him until we tried to put the new bun into their pen, his new name is Dexter!, Delilah FREAKED!!! We expected her to put up the most fight and she did just cause she is the dominant one. She nipped him and he squealed it was kinda scary, he is soooo friendly and social with people.

Gorgeous! Congratulations of bringing home Dexter. The females do get pretty territorial about their space don't they?! Stick to neutral space because the interaction you described there sounds positive. Early days - so best of luck!

After seeing her attack him today I want to aviod that at all costs!!! It was just so unlike her and I do realize that her world turned upside down but still! Delilah is the dominant one, she never would let Davey mount her...ever, but she would do it to him but today Dexter mounted Davey and her which was really odd that she actually let him do that to her. It was quite odd. If I would take them in the car should I put them all together (eek scary) or separate? We did the first meeting in the kitchen this afternoon around 4-5ish and we're going to mix it up between there and the bathroom, and try the car at some point. How often should I be doign sessions with them and how far apart? We put Davey and dexter together in the kitchen at about 8ish and Davey just wants to be friends...he snuggled and cleaned Dexter a little and Davey even flopped with him. I'm kinda nervous to even put Davey back in the cage with Delilah, they had a fight earler when I think he smelled like Dexter.

Looks like Davey & Dexter made fast friends.

Personally, I would not start bonding sessions just yet. As Dexter is so new to the household, perhaps let them get used to each others presence from afar. Bonding can be stressful to the rabbits and Dexter has not likely had much time to settle into his new home. Testing them out in neutral space as an introduction would be ok but I would be hesitant to go straight into full bonding sessions.

I was suggesting only Davey & Delilah having a car trip. It may help strengthen their bond if you believe it has been compromised. I believe you were looking at rescue buns (youngish). Is Dexter young? Is he neutered? If not, this could cause part of the reaction from Delilah. I cannot remember, are Davey and Delilah siblings? They look so alike.

I'm not sure if you've already seen it but there's some bonding info under Bunny Info tab top of page. This may give you tips on how to get started.

Davey we think has turned into the protector...Since he and Dexter like eachother he seems to be like staying between Deter and Delilah. Davey and Delilah were in their pen and Dexter went up to the outside of the pen and sniffed Delilahs nose then it looked like she tried to nip him but then Davey started chasing Delilah. He almost seems like he want Dexter to be with him but he wants Delilah to calm down. Since Delilah is dominant could she be freaking out cause she may not be the dominant one anymore and has to re establish herself under Daveys rules?

Well...things arent going as planned. Davey and Delilah havnt been getting along too well, Davey has been chasing her and they got in a big scuffle today and now she has a boo boo on her eye. Delilah is just being SOOOO aggressive. We took them into the bathroom today and she like attacked my husbands hand to try and get to Dexter. I keep getting more worried though cause she isnt letting up and Davey is trying to make Dexter groom him and Dexter wont but Davey is at least attempting and he licks him occasionally too. I dont want to risk any of them getting hurt. That is fine if we have a lone bun, but the goal was to have 3. Whenever she sees Dexter, she just goes for him, her tail goes straight out and she is just fixated on him. This is the set up we have them in right now, all are separated, Delilah-white cage, Davey-back left and Dexter-right. Should I just bond Dexter and Davey and keep Delilah separated since they're getting along?

Here are some pics from today, they seem to be kind of sticking together now...weird. Oh and I had to throw in a cute pic of Dexter too! hehe

I know it can seem like you take a step backward when you have a great day one day and then a fight happens the next but it is typical.  You're doing great.  If they're letting him groom both of them, then they're beginning to accept him in his new position beneath them - and he's accepting it too. 

All the photos actually look like you're making great progress - sharing a litter pan, him animated in front of them without them attacking.  All great.

I hadta do this picture though...

HAHA! Thats so cute! Currently they are all flopped/loafed out on the patio, Davey and Delilah on one side and Dexter on the other, but they are all together and relaxed and not fighting! Our apartment buildings are getting painted, yesterday and today, so theres lots of ladders banging and generators running, lots of stressing noise, but they dont seem to mind!
