Scared bunny?

[ryanjames]

Hi All,


We've noticed something a little strangewith our new bunny Baily. She will be just sitting or hoppingaround then for no reason that we can tell will sort of jump in kindalike a circle, its hard to really describe, it's kinda ofjerky and extremley sudden type of movement. Then she'll runaroud fast for a minute and go back to what she was doing before. Thestrange thing is this will happen when no one is moving around ormaking noise. Do rabbits startle for no reason or could therebe something physically wrong, and is this something we should take herto a vet to have checked out.

Thanks

Ryan

When I got my first rabbit, I thought she was having short fits. I thought something was wrong, too.

Here's a thread with aclip:

Hehe...hey, I warned you guys in the "how do you talk to your bunnies" thread!

Hehe!! I never realized just what I talked to my girls like until I started hearing my videos...:blushan::embarrassed:

 

[JimD]

The part where you go "WHEEEEE!!" just about sent me over the edge!

:embarrassed:

It's so funny...she's guaranteed to binky just about every timeI do that, or when I say "binkbinkbinkbink!!!" She's such ahappy girl...doesn't take much!

[align=left]Thanks for the responces, we werevery concernd that something might be wrong with her. Good toknow that she is a happy bunny. Sorry for all the novice questions (webought two books and the information seems more often than not tocontradict with each other). Does anyone have an opinion on what thetemperature should be before we let Bailey outside to play for a bit?


Thanks
