My rabbits are raised with eachother from about 1 month years old- Why now, 4 months later they are fighting?

They use to never fight but recently, both males are fighting and blood is every where, i separated them, and try putting ointment on (antibiotic) but it appears the wound is dry, so is it too late?
and do female and male both fight each other? or only 2 males and 2 females
and why do they fight if they always known each other?
They will fight with any other rabbit that they perceive to be in their own territory. They are fighting now because they are maturing and that is just the way of rabbits. You will have to separate them . They don't have human emotions and will never be friends as we humans think they should.
Rabbits do not have a breeding season. They are ready to reproduce any minute, any day, any month of the year.

Breeding season, hormones flying. The males fight for dominance. Separate the males. The females should be okay together.

Sounds like they may need a bigger place to live.

I'm not a good "expert" with rabbits, but I'm guessing they're like female hamsters. Female hamsters like to compete for space and are aggresive. (I had two hamsters) Rabbits are the same. Sometimes they go back to normal after a few weeks sometimes they just stay the same. Same thing with the litter. Hamsters are in a same litter, and after a few weeks they fight and can kill each other
