Is this hormonal or something else?

Over the past day or 2 I have noticed my 4 month old female rabbit Bellatrix is holding her tail up as if she is doing a wee a lot more than usual. Is this her hormones starting to come in as she also seems to be... smelly which hasn't happened before! Is this hormonal behaviour and is 4 months the right age for this to start?

Sorry i cant help much mainly just bumping.

The tail may be excitement/alert but im not ao sure she should smell? Is her genitals clear or anything on fur

Edit - there you go then

With her tail going up, this does sound like my honey.. Hers went up around 5 months old, and would stay up constantly & we had the occasional grunt which was her hormones kicking in. We didnt really notice a smell being honest, but with us having her brother close bye.. the spraying was really bad!!! (good job my partner is a painter & decorator, lol!) but hopefully someone else can confirm for sure for you!

Ok so it's deffinitely hormones, she's started the grunting! She literally turned 4 months yesterday so I've got ages to wait! Her personality seems to have completely changed and she's so demanding and won't leave me alone!
