Pet's info: Small Animal | Rabbit | Female | unspayed | 6 months and 9 days old
I have two spayed female giant rabbits and one has the tendency to hump the other. Should I be concerned?

This is part of dominance behavior, and the one humping the other is showing she is the top bunny. I wouldn't be concerned about it, but I would stop any aggression and separate them immediately. By the way, I love their names :-)

Thanks for reaching out about Bun Bun. Usually this is an establishment of dominance. One will become the dominant female and one submissive. This hierarchy might change over time. As long as there is not biting or scratching, it should be fine. Both rabbits should be spayed due to the high incidence of uterine neoplasia. Good luck.
