Okay, so I have Mickey and Chester (the mini-lop english whatever and the lionhead) and after a few spats about two weeks after I got them, they've been perfectly fine with each other. Well, I think the boys finally hit puberty. No scratch that, I KNOW they've finally hit puberty. Poor Chester can't do a thing without Mickey mounting and humping the everliving daylights out of him. It was kind of obnoxious at first but now when I look over Chester I see that Mickey's been biting his ears and tearing fur out of his back. I've been treating the wounds with hydrogen peroxide but I feel so bad for Chester! They're bad bites. Mickey has also been spraying everywhere. I don't know how he does it. He was facing his cage today and I was on his left side facing a wall the cage is against and SOMEHOW his spray got on me. Just ridiculous. And gross. I figure neutering will help all of this which I plan on getting done relatively soon, but my question is...do I HAVE to get them both neutered if Mickey is the only one with the problems right now? I mean, Chester humps sometimes but he's too much of scaredy cat to keep at it. It's really only Mickey that's the problem. Has anybody only had one of two rabbits fixed before? Do you think it will cause problems?

Also, I'm planning on looking this up on rabbit.org in a sec, but I'm pretty sure it's Chester who is peeing dark orange. I'm guessing it's a bladder infection - is there anything OTC I can use or should I bring him to the vet first?

If I had a camera that worked I would post pics, sorry none for now :(
