Rabbits loving carrots is a bit of a stereotype - not all do! Just like humans, rabbits have different tastes.
Don't worry about your rabbit not liking carrots - they're just not his thing! Here's a list of suitable and unsuitable veggies for rabbits, I'm sure there will be plenty others he will like! Most can't resist curly kale, though they shouldn't have this often.

Did you also know that mice don't actually like cheese? They like the smell but not the taste!

Good question--my first rabbit had a dislike of carrots, but my newer rabbit loves them. Perhaps you could try a different variety, like baby carrots? Some buns just don't like 'em, though, so maybe Romaine or Boston lettuce, or dandelions, are your best bet. Be sure to avoid spinach and Iceburg lettuce, though!

Not all rabbits enjoy carrots - thats a bit of a bugs bunny ideal!! Our rabbits wont eat them but they do love leafy greens (you can buy them in any supermarket).

Rabbits in the wild don't generally eat carrots, they eat carrot TOPS (the leafy part).

we usually have the impression that rabbits are carrot eaters, but it all depends on the individual animal. its digestive system may vary from other rabbits and its bodily functions and other factors may all differ. feed your rabbit only with what it eats best. good luck.

Well...people are supposed to like chocolate. But not every single person does. So your rabbit is just the exception to the rule.
My bunny LOVED bananas. Try one for your rabbit. Try apples & grapes, too.

Not all rabbits like carrots, just as with people it's down to personal tastes. There are plenty of other vegetables you can give her to keep her healthy. Try www.rabbit.org for advice.

WHATEVER YOU DO......
don't feed your rabbit lettuce. It could give them diareaha and it could kill them. Go to a pet store and get treats for it. Or you could get your bunny a piece of untreated wood. Rabbits love chewing on wood because it wears their teeth down (their teeth always grow).
Hope this helps!.
