I have an 8 month old female black dwarf lop rabbit who lives outside in a hutch. Over these past few months, ive been finding clumps of her hair in her bed. Is it just her hormones or something? Because at around the same time she becomes angry and grumpy.
Is this normal?

She comes in every night and I get her out all the time.

No animals can get into my garden. We have fences the whole way round and we are in a built up area. There is a cat who lives next door who comes in, but Mab (My rabbit) and the cat arent scared of each other. They just sit and stare at each other. I think it may be that shes having a ''false pregnancy''.
I cant bring her in all the time because I have 2 kittens. And she doesnt like them.
I BRING HER IN ON A NIGHT AND I GET HER INSIDE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

This is fairly normal, rabbits malt and pull out their own fur.
Speak to your pet store or vet if you are really concerned.

Hi,
WOW! This sounds like she wants to be a Mom, she may be in heat.
Please read the site below, this will explain more about breeding rabbits.
Her anger and grumpiness could be P.M.S. .
If she is in heat, then yes this is normal. She is building a nest, they use there hair to keep the Naked Babies warm until they have their own fur.

There are many methods to make our hair grow faster, shine , glitter in natural ways without using chemicals. Learn here https://biturl.im/aULRe Men, and sometimes women, notice that their hair is thinning prematurely for several different reasons. Age, menopause, pregnancy, genetics, illness, and other factors all play a role in hair loss. Sure, you can use drugs or you can go in for a hair transplant or fusion, but sometimes the easiest, most inexpensive solution, is to try to stop hair loss naturally.

Please don't leave your rabbit outside at all. I had mini lops my evil stepdad would not let them in the house anymore, reason I don't know. He said we had a fenced yard and they would be safe. I had six in a long hutch. I wento out one morning and all were dead. A stray dog had gotten in our yard and had skinned each one by biting their fur and skinning them around their middles. Terrible story but I am trying to get my point across. Yeah I still see that visual in my head.

it is not safe or practical to keep a pet out doors. what is the sense of even having a pet. rabbits pull their fur for nesting. bring the rabbit inside or give it to some one who can take better care of the rabbit. google House Rabbit Society. everything you would ever want to know about rabbits is there. rabbits can freeze to death or die of heat exposure. they can also become prey for any animal.

Is it possible that she is pregnant? I know they use their own fur to build a nest. If not go to the vet.She might have skin disorders or something internal. You took on the responsabilty of a pet is is your DUTY to ensure you are doing your best to keep its heath in line
Good luck

Rabbits if they are nervous pull out their hair.Make sure no other critter is trying to get to her.Also if she is alone get her a companion,no one, even our critters like to be alone.
