lump/scab found on bunny...advice please?

[Nikipops]

I was stroking my bunny today and found a small scab/lump on her side, just above her back legs, it looks like a scab on top but feels like a pea size hard lump underneath...it does not seem to cause her any irritation and it didnt seem to hurt her when I was having a look, her coat is healthy and she's eating and running around as normal. Does anyone know what this is?

Is she a bonded bunny? It could be the start of an abcess (sp?) if your buns have ever had a fight. If you do have bonded buns I would go to the vets as it will need cleaning and a course of baytril.

If not I would still go to the vets as bunnies can get very ill very quickly. Does the area around the scab feel hot?

I don't want to worry you but personally I would take my buns to the vet, and have found very similar to you and it was an infected wound from a fight they had.

Someone else will probably be able to help more though as if your bun isn't bonded I'm not sure what it could be.
