Best Answer

Mounting/Humping in the rabbit world is not necessarily a sexual behavior but is commonly about dominance.

Your female rabbit is expressing to the young male that she is the boss!

Why are two rabbit males trying to mate?

If they are fixed they shouldn't do that, but if they are not, they probably are really wanting to mate with a female. My female rabbits sometimes do the same. Rabbits of both sexes sometimes mount other rabbits in a show of dominance: it isn't always a sexual behaviour. If the dominance turns aggressive, the rabbits should be separated. Rabbits can only be kept together if they're bonded, which means they can be trusted not to fight. See the related questions below for details and links.

Why are your two female rabbits fighting?

Does (female rabbits) will mount each other as a sign that they are ready to breed. Males will also mount each other in their puberty age as a way of establishing dominance. Rabbits of both sexes sometimes mount another rabbit as a show of dominance. One female mounting another is trying to assert dominance. Keep an eye on your bunnies and separate them if it turns to fighting. Rabbits can be kept in the same cage if they're bonded. Usually this means the rabbits must be neutered/spayed - but, in some cases, when they've been raised together, female rabbits can be kept together even when they aren't spayed, and they won't fight. When rabbits are bonded, that means they don't fight and are affectionate. The bonding process can take anywhere from a couple weeks, to many months of patience and hard work.
