Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out if somthing is wrong with one of my rabbits, or if it is me worrying over nothing.
Earlier today I noticed that our male rabbit (Barnie) was lying in his hutch all out stretched. (I better mention his hutch is open at all times and is in a shed that he has full run of.) I wasnt too concerned except that he usually lies on top of the hutch and only goes in the hutch when he goes to the toilet. I nudged him and he got up and went through the catflap on the shed to his run(which is attached to the shed) I went out side the shed to see what he was doing, and found him lying outstretched on the wet soil. I thaught this was odd but didnt really think to much of this, but tonight when I went down to the shed to feed them, Barnie seemed really subdued. Not even nibbling his Kale or hay, I tried him on Alfalfa which he loves and he is not interested. Also we have this little game where I hold a bit of straw in front of him and he bites it in half, but he doesnt even want to do that. Usually he is really hyper. but he is just lying there. Apart from that he looks fine, his ears ***** up ( cant you say p rick up on here lol)etc but he looks really sleepy. My other rabbit a female called domino seems fine. They are both 2 years old, love eachother tremendously etc. I was wondering what could be wrong with him. Is it possible that he is just having an off day? Or should I be more concerned?
