I would also recommend reading the Cheat Sheet. Lots of Links to different rabbit care topics.

Obviously your having more luck with our forum, than with the other you joined recently.

how long does it take for the bunny to betranced? I tried for about 5 minutes, stroking his nose and cheeks buthe didnt trance

Shawn goes into a trance in a few seconds if I lie him on his back and gently blow on his nose

Not all rabbits will trance. My Mocha won't, forexample. She HATES being flipped. Sometimes you can get her to relax alittle, but as soon as she sees a way out she's gone! Clipping hernails is a two person job. We've found that she will calm down if oneperson holds her upright, on hand on her chest with fingers on eitherside of her front legs and one hand under her rear. She's more calm,but not happy.

I think that really depends on the bunny.

With some buns it can be instantly, or few mins and there are even some buns that do not like it at all, like one of mine.

Pernod trances quite quickly, but she is neverin 'deep' enough that she would stay that way for nail clipping etc.Perry won't be tranced, no matter how much head/nose rubbing we do.However, he doesn't struggle as much as Pernod when held, so I don'tbother trying now.- Jan

Lop rather enjoys being in a trance.

I still have to get a pic of Loo when she is in a trance.
