Hey there guys, I've tried looking this up on the internet but seem to get a response that the rabbit is in fear but I was wondering if anyone can give me a bit more of an insight to this.

We have Six rabbits (four boys, two girls), One Male and Female are the parents of the rest and have since been neutered, we keep the rest of the males and females separated and they all spend time with the parents in doors.

However, for the past week or so, the daughter (five months old) has become quite, well, shy and appears to be in fear, whenever the father rabbit is near her she starts letting out a crying/whimpering sound that appears to be getting louder, she'll even let out a cry if the mother rabbit approachers her too fast, but the thing I'm confused at is they don't seem to be doing anything to cause her to act this way, the father rabbit, ..err, when he's in the mood, will mainly chase the mother rabbit, when he's near the daughter, all he does is lick her and lie down near her.

So just wondering what should I do to try and boost her confidence or something because she really has no reason to be in fear and she's the only one who's like that.

Wow I have never heard that before. I only heard that rabbits only make a noise (sometimes) before they pass away.

May I suggest this site as there are some very bunny wise people on here and it's where I go for any bun advice

Both our female houserabbits do this when approached by their bonded male partner even though they are neutered. They only do it when the male chases her or tries to mate. Yes, they will still attempt to mate on occasion even though they are not intact. It never seems to go away with some males, it just happens much less. They most often do it just before feeding when they hear their dish being filled with tasty Supa Excell.

We have 2 pairs of house bunnies one pair almost 9, the other just 4 years old. We have kept rabbits for over 20 years & I would not worry about it.
