  You may have seen me post before about my little buns. I have one that has seizures and lives on medication (Seamus) and we recently got him a new brother(Craig) to keep him company while Im at work. Now these boys had a very rocky start, fighting and ripping out fur and little Seamus was the bully surprisingly. But after a few car trips they are not cuddling and grooming. However, Craig wont give Seamus ANY space at all. If Seamus moves Craig must follow and I can tell that it is stressful on Seamus. Craig is bigger than Seamus but will jump on him and get in his face and Ive noticed a spike in Seamus’ seizures. Now I noticed that Craig is humping and dominating the little one. I hate hate hate to say this but I wont sacrifice the one who was here first… I dont want to get rid of my buns now that they have bonded but if Craig continues to pick on Seamus, his seizures will continue to get worse and I almost lost my rabbit to his fits before. Typically they are grooming each other and cuddeling…but the Craig is in his face and causing too much stress and Seamus will fall over.

  You might be able to make it work by putting them in separate cages and only letting them be together when you let them out to play? I’m not sure how you house your rabbits so this may or may not work.
  
  I only have one rabbit so I’ve never had this happen to me. But I have 3 parakeets. And my female is just very mean to one of my males, so I now have them in separate cages and I only let them out one at a time. They can interact, but only with cage bars between them.
