Ok, maybe I am projecting human emotions on to her 
.
But really!
I adopted a rex cross doe 2 weeks ago.
She had just been bred (so maybe this is just hormones), and she is about 2.5 years old.
She seems in good weight, her feet look good, her ears, eyes, mouth look fine.
She previously lived in a hutch that was basically dark 24/7 from what I could tell, likely on straw~ it was under a bench, wooden, solid door
I don't imagine she had much human contact as the owner was a 14 year old whose Grandpa kept her rabbits for her (and he is very old school farmer).
So chances are she is pretty dulled by life.
I gradually brought her into more air and light, she is now in a large wire cage (I added a box for her to chew/ hide in).
But she is such a sad sack. Not much appetite. No curiosity.
I have been giving her tidbits several times a day (she won't eat if it is in my hand yet).
Should I just accept that she is what she is?
Is there some sort of tonic I can give her?! :lol:
Any suggestions for winning her over?
She's really bringing down the room!
