Hello I have a dwarf rabbit he is around 6 month old ,he eat and drink water and act normal but once I picked him up and put him back on the ground he started to move shake a little bit his head and move hos hand like he couldn’t control it but it was for only 10 or 15 second and he went back to normal also he hate being picked up and get stressed easily so I thought it could be because of stress,I went to the vet and the vet checked his ears and he didn’t had infection or anything,but now he did the head shake again two time again what cause that ?could it be because he get stressed because he get scared of anything easily of every little noise

He could have been having a seizure. That is something that stress could trigger in some rabbits. If this is what's happening, I would strongly urge you to not try and pick up your rabbit unless absolutely necessary. And if these episodes keep occurring, talk to your vet about the possibility of it being seizures and what the treatment options are. If your vet isn't an experienced rabbit vet, I would urge you to find one so your rabbit will get the best possible diagnosis and treatment.
