Here is the story any ideas how I can fix this.

Milo was with us on his own, he's very bouncy so we got him a friend.

When he first arrived his toileting was not good, it got better and then we got Ruby.

Now both are fixed bunnies but they now poope everywhere.

Milo broke his leg and went to hosp for a few days.

Ruby was pretty good, no toileting in the bed area mostly in the tray.

MIlo is back and she's pooping everywhere.

When Milo was away she followed us everywhere like Milo did before we have Ruby.

Now he's back and in a dog crate she's a little terror and not even bothered with him.

Any advice or explainations please?

I think she is being territitorial HBWS

Territorial or excited. I think my best suggestion would be to reduce her space as well. Then when Milo is well enough to be with her again make sure they both start in a small space and slowly increase it. And just keep putting her poo in the litter tray as soon as your see them.

you know i seriously feel personaly that pooing every where when amother bun is around is the same as weeing it's like dominance saying this is my area but i think that because mine do the same and they poo for england,
but that's just my opinion all i can say is keep up litter training maybe they will settle it down a little
sorry can't be of any real help Smile

In wild rabbits they do all the pooping outside the burrow to let others know 'Keep away' and really it's the same for domestic buns .

I had two buns like that, the female was clean, the male I was told was clean when in rescue, put them together and it a sea of poo everymorning in their hutch and run. I reduced their space twice and increased it gradually, buit the more space they had the more poo they did. It was incredible! I had to clean them out twice a day to keep on top of it

Interestingly the female started spraying, now I didn't think females sprayed but the do.

Hermione sprays everywhere in the play house, she isn't spayed yet so I'm hoping it twill stop when she is done, but she sprays Boo and and I've seen her do it.

I think it's all dominance/territory and tbh I don't think you can stop it. I guess it's just the personality of the buns involved.
