I have two bunnies in the process of being bonded who each got a bite in on each other during tonight's together time. Both bites are fairly small and clean, and don't seem to be bothering the buns (I know that rabbits will hide it if they aren't feeling well, so I'm keeping an extra close watch on their behavior and nothing is off), but are rabbit bites always a serious risk for infection and should I take them to the vet ASAP, or is it okay to just keep an eye on them for the next day and see how it goes?
While I'm on the subject, does anyone have any tips for bonding bunnies who bite like this? They are starting to get along with each other and will cuddle and nuzzle when we put them together, but if one startles the other they'll just bite (or try to, until tonight) without warning. I've tried squirting them when it starts but either I'm not doing it fast enough or they're just ignoring it. Their bonding just started almost a week ago so I might be trying to go too fast, but they really seem to be making good progress aside from the biting.
