My two girl bunnies won’t stop humping ! What do I do?

[Sierramarino]

so I just got a new female lion head rabbit. I introduced her to my other rabbit , an American dwarf , also a female. However the American dwarf seems to constantly hump the lion head rabbit as well as ripping out some of its fur. I tried stress bonding to help make it stop or so I hoped but it didn’t change a thing. I put them in separate rooms but I’m not sure what else to do or how to help ! Anyone have some feedback? Anything is appreciated! They are also both unspayed.

If they are both unspayed, separate them now. If they continue to be allowed to interact, not only may they cause serious injury to each other (or worse), but it will prevent them from bonding in the future.

If you are looking to have a bonded pair, they first need to be fixed. If it is possible to return the newest one, I'd suggest doing so. Then you could take your time to have your original one spayed and allow her time to heal. Once that is done, then you can allow her to meet some other, already-fixed rabbits from a rabbit rescue. That is a way to pre-screen for potential compatibility.

There are a couple bonuses by going that route. One is that the 2nd rabbit will end up costing less because it will already be fixed (cost of rescue rabbit is typically less than the cost of a spay or neuter). The other bonus is that if it so happens that a chosen rabbit refused to get along with yours, it can be exchanged for another. Just let the rabbit rescue (different than generic shelter) know that you are intending to bond your rabbit with one of theirs.

Here's more info on bonding.

Are you certain one isn't a male? That would be the most likely answer, and if so you need to separate, wait a month to make sure she isn't pregnant or get an emergency spay done now, get him neutered and wait a month for hormones to die down before attempting bonding again.

If they are definitely both female, separate, get them spayed, then try the bonding after a couple weeks post spay. Continuing to keep them together while the one rabbit won't leave the other alone, could result in a very serious fight occurring, which could result in severe injury.
