So, you may or may not have seen my post earlier in the week about the netherland dwarf that we got on saturday that was not eating. We finally found a food he likes and he is now eating and drinking normally! Thank you everyone who helped me with that situation
Well now that he has some spunk back in him after not eating for 5 days, he seems to have taken a liking to biting :angry: My rabbit does not do that so I am not sure how to go about handling it. But, my 10 year old sister just came in my room crying, telling me that she was petting the rabbit and he bit her repeatedly in the same spot in just a few seconds. I went in there, thinking maybe she was handling him the wrong way so that it was hurting him (as 10 year olds might do without knowing) and he did it to me too! When I picked him up he bit me several times on my finger before I could even get my hand away.
Any suggestions for this one? When he did it (he did it several more times in the few minutes that I worked with him) I told him "No!" sternly, then continued on with what I was doing. I'm not sure how effective this was, if at all, but I wasn't sure what else to do.
