At the minute he gets wild and chews everything in sight and bites people sometimes.

I am glad you used the word Behaviour and not personality. Yes it will help his aggression. It is the main reason why people get Male rabbits desexed. Male rabbits, like most male mammals, are driven by there hormones and to remove the testis will diminish the produce of testosterone thus reducing aggression.
If he is normally a nice rabbit but had only just started getting aggressive he will return to being that nice rabbit again.
What desexing does not do is alter there personality, it will only alter there behaviour to a nicer rabbit.

I would love to tell you that having him fixed will solve your problem, but there are no guarantees. It depends a lot on his personality and his age. The younger he is, the more likely that it will change his behavior, and if his personality is being masked by the behavior, it may help as well. I have a 15 month old male dwarf bunny who was neutered at 7 months because of similar behaviors... he was biting and chewing and spraying urine. He doesn't spray much anymore, and he bites and chews less, but it didn't eliminate the behavior. I would still recommend having him neutered, as I think it's healthier in the long run, and if you ever want to bond him (which I also recommend) he has to be neutered first. Good luck!


By the way, my bun is just the sweetest little guy. Even though he bites sometimes, I've come to realize he bites when he's not getting the attention he wants. Usually, he cuddles in my arms and gives me kisses.

He may become less aggressive because the testosterone isn't running through his system. but, this may take several weeks to run it's course, too. He will probably be tired and take it easy for the first few days to a week, then be back to normal. Shoot, he may even come home as if nothing happened! Either way, he should be just about the same and probably better.

it would nicely be a diversion yet when the worst artist in the international, Gwen Stefani, made a record with Dr. tooth and the electric powered Mayhem i'd purchase it. (sorry if Deke sees this and plans on answering, as i'm obviously ripping him off, yet she is the worst and that i'd in all likelihood purchase it. perchance if she did a record with Macho guy Randy Savage or Shaq to take heed to the finished practice smash of a record that ought to come from this style of collaberation).

Neutering most often improves litterbox habits and reduces biting/territorial aggression, but it also sometimes reduces behaviors like chewing and digging.

He probably will come to resent you, and then grow to hate you for what you had done to him. Make sure that any firearms in your home are secured, as he may injure you or himself during this time of depression.

Thank you, come again!

I don't know bunnies can be neutered! But i have seen rabbits have homosexual copulation. Weird huh?

Should mellow him out some. But as for his nasty disposition, I doubt that will change much.
