Biting Bunny

[Danv80]

We have a female lop ear cross rex. She is a beautiful rabbit and seemed so friendly however she has recently started biting my husband! No one else just him and will circle around his feet nipping!
What to do??
Thankyou

How old is she and is she spayed? It sounds like it may be hormonal. Circling is claiming ownership of him.

Is she actually biting (hard to draw blood) or is she nipping (trying to get attention or communicate)?

I agree this sounds hormonal, my bunny did this a lot when she hit puberty, and those bites got harder and harder the more frustrated she got!

Sounds like courting behavior. We had a Dutch that did the same things.

We think think about 7 months, she isn’t spayed yet as was thinking of breeding her. She bit very hard to draw blood!
