I'm assuming one has red eyes and the other blue?
Since they are outside, do you have a problem with fleas? My bunnies are inside and I have a horrible flea problem. There are three 'crazy cat ladies' in the neighborhood and I can't keep the cats away from where I live without it causing problems with my rabbits (sprays, noises). One of them even got violent with me saying her cats had a right to sleep on my doorstep (where the fleas are most likely coming from). I counted at least fifteen+ in front of her place and a third of them were in the right of way. I have several spots on my lower legs from flea bites, I feel sorry for what the rabbits have to put up with. :( I treat them, but I do so very spareingly. It's getting better, but will always have problems as long as the cats keep harassing my bunnies with the scent, noises, ear mites, and fleas. :(
If you know anyone that wants a nice year old doe, I have one that would like to have her own place since she fights with my other two does. She has a funny personality, and I think the aggressiveness is just because she is one of three does and competing for the turf and single buck.

Are they the same size? It is good they have different color eyes as they would be hard to tell them apart...especially if they are sleeping. As far as fleas, it is bad to medicate rabbits due to them being sensitive to chemicals, but Advantage II for cats is generally safe for rabbits. I have used it myself with no problems, but don't use those other flea treatments as there has been issues with them when used on rabbits.
Curious what noises they make. My white guy purrs rather easily as he isn't too picky, but the others are more selfcentered and it takes a bit for them to purr. One girl grunts/chuffs and another just grouchy complains all the time. Complains that I am going to pet her, then complains when I stop. :)

Oh, make sure you get rid of the fleas once you comb them out (i'm guessing they fly off the comb as they did with me). I put a plate of water with a couple drops of soap next to me to quickly fling them in. If you don't get rid of them, they will just come back. They say they can live up to 100 days between meals. :(
One thing you could try is to put a large plate with soap water next to their home and put a nightlight just above it at night to trap them. I bought a 'flea zapper' from epilady that is supposed to kill fleas, but it only stuns them...but it gives plenty of time to flick in soap instead of them jumping away to bite another day.
