Doe shaking head - itching ears?

[Blue Ridge Bunnies]

Good morning all. I have a year old, breeding doe who has been shaking her head and occasionally scratching at her ears. They are clear and beautiful looking. Is it possible she has mites that I cannot detect? I want to treat her but not sure with what since I don't know what's wrong. Any suggestions?

a few drops of mineral oil in the ear wouldn't hurt. there might be mites starting to establish themselves in the ear canal out of sight. We made a mixture of coconut oil, olive oil, with a couple drops of neem oil and tea tree oil. Works amazing as a natural ear mite treatment.

Good suggestion of using oil. I've used that for ear mites for years.
I would caution against a "couple of drops" of either tea tree or neem oil. I would dilute either of those fairly well. I know from personal experience that tea tree oil stings at a 50/50 mix with olive oil.

Also smell close to the ear, I know sounds weird, but if there is a fungal issue not a parasite oil may not be a good choice.
