Yes, they do.
You are going to need to get them out of that bird cage very soon. It's too small for them.

The pictures make the rabbit cage appear smaller. Also I have a different water feeder arriving that will clear up space shortly. I deliberately photograph at sharp angles to minimize the bird poop situation that happens right after cleaning haha

They each currently have room to spread their wings without touching, if they wouldn't all stand next to each other constantly anyway. Also no pecking situation happening. This is the cage the feed store suggested for brooder but... Definitely monitoring it jic.

Thank you Chopper Bambi, I have seen so many good photos on BYC ruined to my thinking, by having loads of poo in the photo. I'm sure as fast as people clean it up the birds poo again. But, sometimes it's just too too much! They could probably just put a napkin over it when they are ready to press the shutter. Or do as you do, shooting at sharp angles.
