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.

Mine do it all the time and i have had them for a year and a half now :) They are signaling to any buck in the immediate area that they are ready to breed.

The does are probably fighting over territory. Rabbits (fixed or not) can be very territorial animals and biting fur is a way of showing dominance. I would recommend separating the does and keeping them as far away from each other as possible.

The male rabbits will probably fight and possibly kill each other. They quite possibly will neuter each other. No rabbits should be caged together.
