If he is not putting weight on his leg it is probably hurting him, I would take him to the vets so they can have a look and discover the cause.

I agree. In the meantime, confine them all to a small area so that he doesn't injure it further. Don't let them out of their hutch.

Good luck at the vets, try and get an appointment for as soon as possible

And welcome to the forum :wave: There's lots of useful advice and info on here, best place to start is the Care Reference section. Are you a new bunny owner?
