Weird Rabbit Action

Team,
Please look at the video
as per the pet store, she is a female.

Well, female rabbits do hump other rabbits, that's normal social behavior when establishing and maintaining dominance and pecking order.

But I can't really remember having heard of does humping objects, males on the other hand...
I would have a close look at her privy parts, if you don't know what to look for (can be difficult), make a picture and post it here.

thanks,
will update soon

@svmax , Have you taken your sweet bunny to the vet in the past? My vet told me that at times males can retract their penis and when they go to spay they realize their female is actually a male? Also, could it be hormonal? Keep us posted!!

I flipped my bunny to see private parys
I wasn't able to see anything, everything Is covered with Fur.

Also when I flip mg bunny closes her eyes and doesn react at all
As if there is no life left

You will need to part the fur to see the area around the anus, right under the tail. It is difficult to determine gender of a rabbit so would be best to get a vet or a rabbit rescue to help you.
And the response to being flipped is called tonic immobility - rabbits will go into a state of shock when flipped over as they are prey animals which causes them to freeze and “play dead”

I had read somewhere that bunny are very happy and trust you, when they flip.
so what wrong with her, is she not liking it that she behaves like this

That is a misconception, many people think because they are still, it must mean they like it. They don’t, it is very stressful for them and you should avoid doing it.

The reason she's very calm when you flip her over is because when a rabbit is on it's back, it is called "trancing"..... it can be extremely harmful to the rabbit so please do not do it unless you are checking gender, or for health problems.

Thanks a ton for your help.
I will try to click some better pics to determine gender

Also wanted to know, if they flip on their own, is it good.

in my six month tenure of having bunny
I saw her doing it only twice

Does she flip completely on her back? Or just flop on her side..?

She flops on side, many times a day
but I just saw her fluping completely twice in 6 months

Wehn they do it by themself they are just happy, content bunnies with no worries at the moment, a good thing.

Picking them up and flipping them on their back and holding them so is something different, it's kind of a sensory overload for some bunnies, and when they have no clue of what to do they hold still or freeze. For a scared rabbit that can be stressful. Mine don't like it - no wonder, who likes being unable tio do anything, but it doesn't really scare or stress them, or at least not worse then picking them up.

Female (or male) will often hump anything they can get close to that isn't a wall. they are especially fond of hands and arms that get too close. If your doe has never had kits, then doing this to the ball is most likely an attempting at getting bred, as they will do this to the male to get his attention when they want bred, or want more...

Both my buns will engage in this mounting behavior (I have one neutered male and one spayed female). In my experience, they do this when they are a bit afraid/threatened by an object.
