I have 4 bunnies, 3 females and 1 male. They are all related (mum, and her son and 2 daughters).

I had my male rabbit(Buckley) neutered a couple of months ago and he hadn't seen his sisters and mum for a while, he had lived on his own.
When i tried to bond Buckley and his mum and sisters again, one of his sisters(Casey) attacked him but thankfully didnt hurt him too serious, but his mum(Alice) and other sister(Bonnie) where completely fine with him and groomed him.

As i want all my bunnies to have a companion, i was thinking of putting Bonnie and Buckley together because they get along and leave Alice and Casey together.

But will they miss each other? Because i've heard of some bunnies turning aggressive because you took them away from the old companion?
 
It's mainly a problem when a rabbit is alone in a new setup. But maybe the 4-some hasn't been given enough time. Maybe you should make the 2&2 setup, but adjacent & see how that goes.
 
Okay :) But im definetly not going to put them into a 4-some incase Buckley was to get seriously hurt. Just as long as Bonnie wont miss her old companions.
