Hi Sabrina,
That is too bad that that has happened to your friend. However I think that a situation like this is unusual and does not happen often. Especial with one male and two girls things should be good once they bond.
But if at any time things were to go bad between them, where they would all be singles then I will take one from you. If you do decide to take them (which I hope you do) then i will give you my email and phone number so you can get in touch with me easily (although i usualy go on RO often).
As far as bonding them to Sabrina it might take some time but form my experience it is not as bad as what I have read (although I am sure there are some hard to bond bunnies). My first bunny was Hoppy and she was six years old when I got her a friend, Clover, and they bonded very quickly. Unfortunately Hoppy passed away eight months later (still miss her a lot). Then I got Lilly and she and Clover bonded without problems as well. The difference was that with Hoppy Clover was always very submissive but with Lilly he was dominate at first but now she took charge. Then three months later i added Bindi. For the first week i did not think that they would ever bond because Clover chased her like crazy and was aggressive. Lilly was not as bad but not friendly at all. After about a week things started getting slowly better and after three weeks they moved into one cage and all are good now. Personaly I find that bunnies are happier when living with other bunnies. Bindi was very people friendly and loved attention (still does) but she really wanted to be friends with Clover and Lilly, even though they were beating her up at first. Now that they have accepted her, she seems very happy and i love watching all three of them snuggle. They are also all friendly with me and even Lilly who was very skittish is now much more social.
