I have a few questions?

Mounting is a dominance behaviour as well as a sexual behaviour for the bun , getting him nuetered will help, but even nuetered buns will exhibit the mounting dominance behaviour.

Will it settle down so they can become friends? Should I leave them alone (with me there) to settle things amoungst themselves? Is it like the GP's you seperate them if there is bloodshed?

The mounting behavior will be greatly lessened with neutering, and after they are bonded to each other it should only happen very rarely. My advice would be to neuter him, then wait about 3-4 weeks for his hormones to calm down, then start bonding them again. During the bonding process, expect to see some more mounting but he should calm down once he gets used to her (and her to him).

I would not leave them alone together until he has stopped constantly humping her and she has accepted him (which is probably not going to happen until he is neutered). I have seen females with their backs all cut up and lots of fur missing because their previous owners kept them in with an unneutered male.

Some good signs to watch for during the bonding process include grooming each other, or ignoring each other, or not bothering each other for long periods of time.

Seperate them immediately if there is any sign of fighting, even before one gets hurt.

I have a male and female rabbit, BOTH are neutered. The only time he humped her was 2weeks after he had the chop, I didn't give him enough time to "calm down". Now they never hump eachother! It is best to get rabbits neutered, males tend to spray!

Thank you so much. I am setting up an appt. for him.

I agree... definitely best to have the male neutered. My buns did not bond until after they were both spayed/neutered. It didn't take long after either... now they are two peas in a pod! Definitely worth it!

I agree with everything BunnyLuv said.
