New Kit
I became the caregiver of 4 female bunnies a few weeks ago. They had been housed together before they were brought to me. Their age is unknown, but I'm sure they are no older than 6 months, although, 2 look a little bigger than the others. I'm not sure if they're the same breed, but the smaller two resemble a mini rex according to online photos, black fur on their backs, around their eyes, and a small patch by the nose with a white stripe down the nose and a white chest and belly. One of the bigger ones is solid black and the other is white with small patches of grayish black fur on her back. A few moments ago, they were chasing and hopping over each other, and I thought they were playing but I suddenly got a whiff of a pungent skunk scent. This took me by surprise as I've never known rabbits to give off a skunk scent. They're also thumping a lot, which I've read means they're not happy, and also digging into the carpet. There are plenty of things for them to chew on, they always have hay available, and they have 2 litter boxes plus the cage tray. They had been laying together and grooming each other, so I'm worried I may have to separate them.
Thanks for your help.
