Can someone confirm or discuss something with me please?
As most of you know, Ginger isn't the most healthy of bunnies, but in the last few days, she's been doing something rather odd that i've never seen before, and its quite upsetting for me, so i'd like to have some form of confirmation as to my suspicions.
When Biscuit goes and lays down - full on flop, Ginger keeps going up to him, and digs at his back, quite forcefully and he jumps and looks frightened and then looks really sad
She'll then lay right next to him, and they snuggle and look fine, then randomly, she'll get up and dig at him again.
I've checked him over frequently to his disgust, but he doesn't appear to have any cuts or scabs that i can tell.
I assume this is some kind of 'normal' bunny behaviour, but i dont know why it's normal and why she's only suddenly started doing it. Is it a dominance thing? We know Ginger is likely 'top bun' but is it 'cos she's feeling a bit rough and is fighting for her position?
They are absolutely fine together at all other times, its only when Biscuit has flopped down and is comfy
Anyone with any advice, happy to listen!
