hey there..im new here and i have a white dwarf rabbit. I want to now the reason why he licks me all the time I put him on me. he licks my hands,lips , practically everywhere!!
 
He either really loves you and thinks you are his mate OR

he thinks you're stinky and he wants to give you a bath! :p;)
 
Welcome, Lula! You are lucky that you have such an affectionate bun, they're not all like this. My bun is a huge licker, too! He licks everybody and everything in sight! It's so adorable to watch him. So, enjoy your bunny's love!

Awww, you're lucky! I have one bunny who will lick sometimes, and the other 3 will lick once in a blue moon...

Aww how sweet..Sugar is just a very affectionate boy....i think he just want's to spread the love around to everyone;)

My Sunshine is a very licky girl..she always has been...i just have to say 'give mummy kiss' and she will lick my nose and face....she's just so sweet.

I just love licky bunnies
 
Yes it is. They produce what is called caecotrophs which are covered in a mucus coat. These contain proteins and vitamins the rabbit needs. The rabbit eats them and they pass through the stomach again digested and absorbed in the small intestine. This way the rabbit gets the most out of what it has eaten.
 
well i actually give him his own food to eat regularly..its like dried food for rabbits and sometimes i give him some of our food but in very small portions, i read that they eat half of their waste on internet too so i think its normal:)
