        Well I have a thread for Tenzin and I posted some pictures of the new boy in the welcome section but I thought making a thread for both boys would be easier  

        Tenzin is my 6 month old ( newly neutered)  Holland lop. The new buy is a 2 year old neutered I believe Netherland / dutch mix. 

        They have not been introduced yet. Tenzin needs another 3 weeks before he can meet anyone. 

        The new boy I am still working on a name for, I want to have him see the vet and be sure he is in fact a male before I decide on a name. 

        Excuse the Messy cages.

        He Likes to get out 

        Tenzin gets pushy when he isn’t getting what he wants

            I will say … When I first Saw my new boy I wasn’t sure … I wanted another Holland lop, or a mini rex …  but looking at his teeny cage I had to get him out of there. But he has such a great personality and he loves to explore. Plus Tenzin and him couldn’t care less about each other. I think I won the bunny lottery

                    They are both darling. I have a feeling they will make a good pair.

                      Thanks I think they have the potential to be a great pair too.

                      So far they completely ignore each other lol. If this keeps up the hard part will be getting them to realize each other exists.

                            Congrats on the new bunny!

                            They are both completely adorable. Great pics!

                            Are you going for an Avatar themed name for the new boy?

                            Edit: Never mind. Have since read you are in your avatar thread.

                              I have no problem with them ignoring each other Its making their own lives easier right now. Tenzin isn’t stressed while he is recovering and the new guy is settling in without worrying about Tenzin.

                              Thanks Its all about the camera lol.

                              And thanks I love my boys.

                                    Quick question. Did you name Tenzin after the Legend of Kora character?

                                          Two more weeks and I plan to start introducing my boys Since Tenzin won’t tolerate being picked up ,finding a spot may be difficult. But wherever I can get him I can easily pick up my new boy and take him there. First though I am going to let them meet through the bars, they are very use to each other since they do have pens that are side by side. but I have a 3 inch gap between them so they can not harm each other.

                                          I will start a thread on the bonding section when I do start their bonding.

                                          Good news though. My new boy seems to like his hay better than the crud they sent him with, he is getting use to his new food, and he seems to be drinking well from his bowl.

                                          Once the boys are bonding my first order is toys

                                            Sounds like a plan! We will look for the bonding thread when it’s time.

                                              Well first we need to confirm that my new boy is in fact a boy and healthy lol.

                                              I did call the vet they said neutered him, and they had a rabbit his size neutered last year.

                                                I ordered a couple of new things for my boys, Mostly to make my life easier which will benefit them as well. 

                                                I love that I no longer have to get IN their pens to give them more hay. and the hay rack and litter box line up very well.

                                                Bonus Image of my boys realizing each other exist.

                                                        Well new boy didn’t like that I moved his litter box and pooped in the corner … So I moved his litter box back lol.

                                                        And thanks I can’t wait to give both boys the full 8’x4′ rub.

                                                        No they don’t flop next to each other, I haven’t begun real intros yet and usually they ignore each other for food lol

                                                            I plan to start intro’s on the 10th, the same day as Tenzins neuter was. I can’t wait.

                                                            And they are in for a big surprise once they bond … I am going to give them a bunch of toys. I would now … but I don’t want to give them more to be possessive over.

Tenzin is the serious one and Bumi is the outgoing crazy one. Also kinda like my boys. Tenzin regularly throws half the food from my hand when he jams his face in the bowl lol.

I can’t use hay racks with either of mine…I think they see it as a challenge. How fast can we get the hay down and all over the floor?!

                                                                        I really want to get a tunnel though! Do your boys play in theirs?

Toby and I have finally come to an understanding about his litter/hay setup and all is well. KitKat’s is in a cardboard box, in the corner of her cage…so she can eat the hay and chew on the box at the same time. seems to work for her so far. That’s how I do hay for the guinea pigs too.
