Hi, I have two sisters, Dutch bunnies, that are 17 weeks old. They used to get along so well. They were in their outside pen running around a few days ago and started really fighting. Clumps of fur everywhere. We separated them into two different cages. I put them back together in their pen for exercise yesterday and one is definitely the aggressor and keeps chasing and climbing on the other one. I'm afraid to put them back together in their hutch but it really is a huge inconvenience bc I only have one hutch. So the other one has to stay inside in a smaller cage that is not safe or sturdy enough to leave outside. I plan on putting them together each day for supervised exercise but do not want to leave them alone. It seems like from what I have been reading it is time to spay them. Is this a good age or would it be safer to do it when they are at least 5 months. I called a vet and she recommend at least 9 months unless they are fighting which leads me to believe it is safer if they are older. Thank you for your thoughts.
