I didn't want to hijack a thread but I was interesting in how to train your rabbit.
My rabbit is 4 months and not spayed yet (planning on 6months). Is it even possible to start training her now? I see people use treats to train, but my rabbit is too young for treats. She has unlimited hay, and pellets at this time and I give her a small amount of veggies a day. The love for her food does not override her emotion/anxiety/hyperactivity if that makes sense to anyone. So I'm not able to use her food to get her to do anything. Right now she is getting more comfortable with me. I've only had her a month. She comes up to me and sniffs me and sits on my lap for a second, but as soon as I reach my hand out to touch her she is off. She does not like to be petted right now. Will getting spayed help calm her? I'm being patient but this is my first bunny and I want to make sure I am doing everything right to get her to be comfortable, stress free but also socialized. She is so independent right now bc she gets unlimited food, and also she doesn't like pets from me, so from her point of view I offer nothing to her. I don't know if I make sense lol but any help is welcomed
