          You usually want to give three days to a week before trying to bond so the new bunny doesnt have so many changes at all once

          Yes, assume all greens are new for her so they should be added into her diet slowly and you should monitor her poops while doing so. Not all rabbits can handle greens, and not all greens will work with different bunny tummies. If you want her diet to eventually match Gizmos, youll have to do it over the course of a few weeks to a few months. Note, that if Nova cant handle specific veggies, and you want them to eat the same ones, youll have to take it out of Gizmos diet

            Thanks as always for your great advice, I really do appreciate it! 

            For now I think I’ll keep the bunnies housed in separate rooms, and start bonding sessions in a few days.  Depending on how those sessions go, I’ll eventually move them into the same room (still separate cages though). 

            And I’ll treat all veggies as new foods and introduce them one at a time, slowly.  Luckily Gizmo isn’t too picky so if we need to adjust Gizmo’s veggies that shouldn’t be a problem.
