I haven't got pictures but I have seen my lot asleep on several occasions. It's really sweet, although Smokey does have a habit of sleeping on her back with her legs in the air when it's hot:lol:!

Are yours indoor or outdoor bunnies? I have never seen Twinkle and Star asleep because they are outdoor bunnies - I see them chilling on their front paws too, eyes half closed but never flopped out properly asleep.
So I was quite surprised when Starbuck and Fay did it yesterday, I had to keep checking they were breathing!!!

Yes they are outdoor bunnies,but I spend lots of time with them...and always checking them if im indoors.I have them in too (one at a time as they arent bonded yet).
Cant bond Lily with anybun really as shes a snuffle/dental and the boy hasnt had his pockets picked so the doe ive had speyed cant go with him cos he would try to mate her and she wont like it..I digress....

I actually started to wonder if Twinkle and Star ever slept because we had checked them even at 11pm before now and they were still up and chilling. OH feeds them at 6am and although sleepy they are awake then too. But the evidence of them sleeping is the massive rabbit-shaped indents in their straw and hay in their sleeping compartment - sooo cute!

I never caught my 'outdoor' buns sleeping either, but then again the time when my current two 'sleep' is during the day (vaguely 11am until 3pm) and I'm usually out at work then, so maybe they did sleep I just wasn't ever around to see them 
The only time I catch the indoors asleep is at weekends and when I had outdoor buns, weekends were a time of 12-hour runs in the garden and they never poo-poo'd all day binkying for a snooze

I have never seen Smokey or Brown Rabbit(Nethie X's) sleep, ever, and they are house rabbits! I have even tried sneaking in on them to see if I can catch them having a snooze. They don't even flop out Now the lops on the other hand, flop out and and sleep like the dead. It's heart-stoppingly scary sometimes.

Rabbits often sleep with their eyes open. So if they're relaxed, still, and their noses are not twitching, I assume mine are sleeping and go about my business quietly around them! I've only ever seen one of mine sleeping with his eyes closed after he and I had been up all night with him in stasis. He was exhausted and slept flopped on his back the next day.

Me too, ME TOO! I hate how everyone else has cutey pics and I don't. I've often wondered if Beau sleeps with his eyes open, cos I never ever see his eyes closed. He does do this really cute thing when he flops though, he sucks his paw like a baby

I know she has her eyes open, but when she's laid like this not moving with her eyes open it scares me more than when she has them closed! :lol:
(She's not closed in the cage/pen!)
