Accepted Answer

Hi XXXXXXXXXXXX,

Yes it is common for two males rabbit to fight even if they were raised together. They are trying to figure out who the dominant male is.

If you want to try to be able to keep them both together you will have to have them neutered. After neutering they will still have hormones circulating for about a month so you will have to continue to keep them separated for that time period before re-introducing them.

Your only other option is to separate them for good.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.
