Litter issues!

This is diesel, the main offender. He is a year and a bit old now and my partner and I have had him since he was 7 months old. He was never litter trained at the shelter, but in the first couple months since having him he has been peeing in the box consistently, but will leave his poops in the main concentration right outside the box and also all around our apartment. We are sorta at our wits end on what to do as now he’s got our older rabbit regressing on litter habits too. They both have been peeing in the box and rarely outside but now the older one is pooping outside the box as well. How do we stop this and potty train them? We have been cleaning up the offenses when we see them and in the mornings when there are a lot. I throw some old poops in the litter box when we change them so the smell is still there. We don’t really know what to do. They are both boys, neutered, and mostly free roam. Pictured is diesel and a dig box not the litter box lol

Nail help!

So my boy Casper was neutered last week and he has a hematoma which I have to keep an eye before his appointment Sunday. He's quite hard to pick up but I have to be able to look at it to make sure it's not getting bigger. Just now my dad and I were handling him and he managed to do this to his back foot. His nail is sticking out sideways. He's kind of walking on it but it clearly hurts him. Bled a tiny bit. Is there anything I can do for him before the vets? Is completely out/ do I need to take him in early? Thank you so much very worried about him.

Are my buns bonded?

Hello fellow bun parents! I am trying to figure out if my two buns have bonded because it was…relatively simple/seems too good to be true? Some Facebook groups and subreddits have made it seem like it was a huge endeavour with many different steps. Here’s how it went for me (and I recognize that every bun’s experience is going to be different)…so I’m hoping I just got lucky? I’ve had a male Netherland dwarf for about 6 years now, and got 2 year old a female holland lop back in May. They’ve both been neutered/spayed years ago. At first, I kept them separate. The male is free roam and the female was in a pen in the living room, with the intent of bonding them and having them both free roaming and happy together 😁 they could see and smell each other through two layers of x-pen, so no nipping. That went on for months, with bonding sessions every few days in a neutral area in a small pen. Nothing remarkable to report, they’d eat hay and end up near each other. No chasing or fighting but no amazing signs either. A few weeks ago I decided to go all or nothing, and had them in a larger pen together day and night for a week straight. It went well with literally no fights so I just set up their forever home now and they are free roaming and seem very happy. Is this okay? I’ve basically skipped the step where you progressively increase their pen area and add a toy at a time, switch litter boxes etc. because the both seemed very chill. Pls don’t come for me I’ve heard so many different ways to do this and I thought it was best for my buns. They’re flopping beside each other and cuddling, one is always grooming the other and they only get agressive if I don’t feed them fast enough LOL but there has been no humping (which I thought was supposed to be a good sign) and my female bun has yet to groom the male back. TL;DR my buns seem bonded without the extensive process, is it to good to be true?

If my hand isn't close enough, she licks the next closest thing. In this case, it was the sheet.
