Rabbits that cant get on?

Question

i have four rabbits 3 female and 1 male everytime i put the male in with the females he fights them what should i do

Answer 1

Always put the buck to the does cage if you are breeding and make sure she is in the pink and showing signs she is ready for breeding.

If you are putting the rabbits together for friendship then do it on neutral territory and make sure all rabbits are neutered.

Bucks will fight with females to mate sometimes and doe's will fight with a new doe in their territory. Are you sure your buck is not a doe?

If you have had them neutered and given them time for their hormones to settle and companion ship still is not working then leave the newcomer to live seperately from the 3 does. Too much fight could lead to fights between the 3 does and the bond between them could be broken for good.

Answer 2

Just keep the male out of the cage and in a different one

Answer 3

simple ...

firstly put them together when there not in the cage and let them kinda meet while not in the cage ...but if they start fighting again then put them apart....then in a couple minutes put them together again ...and if they start fighting then separate them for a couple minutes again ...keep doing that until they get the idea!

they will catch on quickly

Answer 4

Do not put them together.

The male most likely wants to mate, and if the females don't they will fight.

PLEASE put them in seperate cages.

Answer 5

SEPARATE THEM! That's sooo final. Leave the poor females alone! Don't you have a separate cage??

Answer 6

Don't put them together... rabbits will fight to the death when put together!  If they do mate, they'll fight right afterwards and its pretty viscious.  I'm suprised your females deal with each other without fighting... they must have been raised up together from a very young age, since females can be more aggressive than males.

Keep them apart, or you'll need some thick gloves and you'll have injured animals.

Answer 7

How about stopping what you are doing and not irresponsibly breeding?

They are more apt to fight if they are not neutered. And you have to introduce them a certain way so they bond.

Answer 8

I had the same problem take them into a different location like your relatives house or so. Or even a different room and put them together in a place that non of them had ever been their. They wont fight then you can clean their cage and try to change the bedding and stuff to remove their scents. Cause the fight is about territory and dominance.

I solve my rabbits problem this way.

it works usually

Answer 9

Are you trying to breed?

If so, you need to just breed one female at a time, and the buck will need a break after one, so give him like an hour break in between does.  What I usually do is breed one doe to a buck, then an hour later breed her again, to ensure she got pregnant, and then the next day, breed the next doe.  

But make sure you bring the doe to the buck's cage.  The doe will defend her territory in her own cage.

This will sound gross, but sometimes does will not be bred, they'll put up a fight, so you have to get the buck off the doe, then stretch out the doe's body, and hold her head still while the buck "does it's thing."  Hope this helps.

Answer 10

Um...Well obviously the 3 females are fighting over him....You really shouldnt put them together...Try spaying all 4 of them...And get another male....If you spayed a rabbit it means they cant have babies...Dont put them females and males together....They can hurt eachother
