I want to know how exactly the behaviour of a bunny changes after he is neutered. I have an 8month lop and i got him neutered 2 weeks ago. One thing to keep in mind though is that my vet found that my lop had only one ball!! Anyways, i have a 2 mnth old female rex bunny and he's still showing her the same (i'm presuming is) sexual behaviour. Is this normal or is it too early to introduce them to eachother? How does neutering a bunny affect their behaviour generally?? What changes behaviourally?
Thanks alot you guys!

If your female is not spayed, keep them apart. He can still get her pregnant for a few more weeks. This is because he still has sperm in him but isn't producing any.
Humping can be dominant behaviour. Females and males will hump to show dominance.
Neutering can help with spraying and aggression. Rabbits will still mark territory even after being fixed, but they will usually use poops and don't do it as often if there are no changes like more bunnies or a different location.
His behaviour should mellow out in a few weeks when all the hormones are out of his system. He should calm down and not be so occupied with mating. You may not notice any changes in him if he is still fairly young and wasn't displaying a lot of male behaviour in the first place.

The behavior gradually gets different because the hormones shrink or something like that.
Agression will change, they will be calmer, and they will quit marking their territory and stuff like that.
And if he's humping her, it might be just for dominance. Rabbits along with other animals will mount another animals to prove that they are dominant, they are the boss.
