All of our buns are shedding like crazy rightnow. I figure that it's due to the change in seasons. They all havethat spikey porcupine lookin butt, too.
Benji gets that kind of gray hazey look when he really needs a goodbrushing, and then after I'm finished he's all sleek and shiny again.He's a Havana and has a thick plush fur. I'll get 3-4 handfuls out of agood brushing....if I can get him to sit still long enough.
It could also be a light molting ....lottsa fur coming out, but no bald spots to speak of.
All I know is the bunnie room is in a constant state of floating fur.
Any flaking...irritations...etc?

Sound like a molt to me...the short downy fur is what makes me think so.
