Rex Bunnies

I was just curious about Rex bunnies and whether there are any particular 'personality' traits that they may have?

I have never had a rex bun before. I am used to dwarf lops, lionheads and dutch buns. But since getting my lovely new rex boy home I have noticed he seems to love digging! Whether he's out in the room or on my bed or in his cage or his litter tray he's trying to dig!

I have honestly never had a digger bun before so this is quite unusual for me lol! He's only 8-9 weeks old so I suppose he may calm down.

If anyone knows anything about typical rex behaviour/characteristics I'd love to know more!

Thanks :)
 
Thats why my rex was given up and named Houdini :lol: although he has never dug here or tried to escape. I absolutly love him to bits, he is my fav bunny but dont tell the others :oops:
 
Bless him! Houdini is a great name! My bunny has been named Velcro- my partner named him, so I can't be blamed!

It's really different watching him, he just behaves so differently to Josie.
 
Hi

I love rex bunnies, they are my favourites by far! out of all the rex's i have had in the past, i can confirm that most of them are diggers, nibblers, shredders! I honestly think they seem to have a lot of wild instincts.
If i was you, i would get him a cat litter tray, fill it with kids play sand. He will love it! My rex's will dig in it for hours :lol:
Rex's seem to have more about them that other breeds, they love to play but seem to hate being picked up :roll: and carried. They also like there ears tickling :D
Also watch out for there claws, they seem to have sharper claws than other breeds. My peter bunny..
