Has anyone else ever seen this sort of behaviour in a bun before?
My new foster bun is 4 years old but he is very very 'unenergetic' (sorry can't think of the right word to use). He has been out today and yesterday in the run in the garden and has just sat in a corner and not touched the grass. I've tried to tempt him with loads of different foods and all the other buns would have them eaten within seconds this one won't touch them. He even leaves his pellets. I have had him in the house and he just sits and won't explore. His previous owner only fed him hay and pellets.
He has been checked by vet before coming to me and is fine health wise. He just seems sad. Any ideas to 'perk' him up or is that just the way he is?! I know I haven't kept many buns before but I have never seen this sort of behaviour and I honestly don't think it is health related. I can probably count on one hand the amount of hops he has done since coming here. I just expect most buns to be inquisitive and sniff out their surroundings but he doesn't. I am at a loss what to try, it can't be good for his health the lack of exercise.
