However if your rabbit is a male, they also spray urine as a sexual activity. You might get sprayed, but that is your rabbit telling you that it needs a female in its life.
When a rabbit reaches maturity it pees on other rabbits because it tries to convey its dominance on other rabbits (Note: I have only heard this from a documentary and I am not 100% certain if this is accurate).
Rabbits are very territorial and like a dog your male rabbit is simply marking his area. Having him neutered will help him to stop spraying so much and will also make him healthier and less aggressive (if that's a problem).
A male rabbit might pee on you because of hormones: he is not neutered and he's trying to "mark" you as his territory. If he is neutered, then maybe he was neutered too late, after he'd already developed this habit of "marking" people, and now it's about habit and not hormones. Another reason a rabbit might pee on you is if he has a urinary infection. A full exam by a "rabbit savvy" vet is recommended, to rule out any medical causes; then, you can try and train the rabbit not to pee on you, or at least practice evasion (for instance, if it's only when you're on the bed that he tries to pee on you, then just don't let him on the bed; or, keep an eye on him and don't let him do it -- usually you can tell when the rabbit is about to pee because he backs up an lifts up his tail). "Punishing" the rabbit is not a good way to train them: not only can it be cruel, but it just generally doesn't work. See the related links below on litter training rabbits for more help.
Rabbits will spray and mark each other as a sign of dominance. This is most common with intact rabbits that have gone through puberty and have plenty of hormones active in their systems.
If you seek to stop this behavior of spraying, neuter your rabbits. More information can be found in the related links.
If he has not been neutered, then he is showing that he is sexually mature and is ready to mate. Peeing everywhere is a way to mark his territory, saying "This is my house and my ladies! Now leave before something bad happens!". If you want him to stop this behavior, consider having him neutered, because he likely will not stop for a long while.
Rabbits normally bite each other because they might be having fun so you dont need to worry. But sometimes rabbits fight so they bite each other. They only fight if they're both males.
The one in action is showing the passive one who is boss.
If your rabbits are biting each other, they must be separated. Rabbits can't be allowed to fight: not only can it traumatize them and affect their personality, but it can endanger their health (and your pocketbook) -- even the smallest cut can lead to a big abscess, which is a serious problem and can be difficult to heal. In most cases, rabbits must be spayed/neutered before allowed to live together -- otherwise, their hormones will cause them to fight when they live in close quarters.

Rabbits normally scratch to keep their claws short
Feed them enough food. Do not keep male rabbits together. Even better, don't keep rabits together, put them in separate cages. Every rabbit needs it's own cage. They are very territorial and will fight if they do not have enough space.
Usually it is just a home or a nesting spot for the bunnies to be born.
why do rabbits keep their big sound collecting ears
Two is the best to keep but they have to be the same gender. It is best to keep two rabbits so they can clean each other and they can play with each other and so they can stay together when there is danger. It is best to have two rabbits from the same family.
Don't put a hamster in with rabbits. While they're likely to ignore each other, there is still the potential that the hamster may get kicked or trampled accidently.
Some can and some will want to be dominent or like each other so much they will lick each other bold so I think it would be best to put them in seperate cages but still close to each other
Keep Doug it
They probably could when it comes to dominating each other because they all fight to be the dominate one and they sometimes fight for it. Also, they could if there is a female with them.

You can put their cages together side by side, but make sure they don't scratch each other or act aggressive towards each other. You can keep their cages some inches apart to prevent scratches. Putting the cages next to each other is one way of getting your rabbits to get used to each other. It's easier to get them on good terms with each other by neutering them.
male rabbits tend to fight, you may want to separate them before they get any older.
First answer: Yes. In my experience ive never had any problem doing this. A different answer: Nursing rabbits and their litter should be separated from all other rabbits. Having another rabbit around can be stressful for a new mother rabbit, and stress is something you want to eliminate as much as possible. Also the other rabbit could accidentally injure the babies. Even if neither has any babies, you may not be able to keep two female rabbits together because they might fight. Generally speaking, you should only keep rabbits together if they are "bonded," which means they love each other and can be trusted not to fight. See the related questions below for more details and helpful links.

It all depends on the rabbits. Usually if you introduce them to each other properly there will only be a small bit of fighting at the very beginning. However all bunnies are different so it may be best to keep them separated or just stick with one rabbit.
