Why is my rabbit pulling his hair out?

As with both answers aready here both are correct in a sence! A female rabbit will pull out hair to line a nest with if she thinks she is pregnant, also skin problems can cause the same thing. Look at the skin and see if it is red and inflamed, are your rabbits kept outside if so they could have gotten mites. This could also cause them to pull out thier hair.
Regardless of all this info. only a vet visit is going to tell you for sure. Good luck

Your rabbit must be unwell. Its troublesome to tell if a rabbit is eating because of the fact they are so fluffy. in case you cant visit a vet, visit a ironmongery save and refer to the guy there. they generally have meds for small animals. attempt to study your 4-H leaders telephone quantity. you may ought to do a seek for it on line, or call a close-by FFA bankruptcy.

Like the other answers, lineing a nest, skin-fur problems,
Could he be bored? Does he get out enought, and have some toys to play with? But you do need to go the Vet, just to
make sure.
Good luck

Is your rabbit a boy or a girl? Is there a chance that it mated recently? My rabbit did that when she was pregnant. She was lining her nest.

Hi,
It has to do with a skin disorder. I have seen that happen quite a bit.

He might be sick or in heat. Take him to the vet.
