What does it mean when your bunny gives you a couple of licks?
I had my bunny out last night in the lounge room, and she was racing around like a mad thing, and I was lying on the floor on my stomach.
A couple of times she stopped next to me quickly licked my arm. No nibbles, just licking.
Does this mean that she likes me, or was she testing me out for food??
Mind you I had her food out along with her litter tray, so she did have access to food.

Bunny licks are a good sign! Either they taste something good on you or they love you and they trust you, too! Both my bunnies do that to me, especially my first one!

My bunny licks me when it wants patted... If it comes up to me and it wants patted and I haven't paid it attention it starts licking me until I pat it and if I stop patting it before it is ready it will lick me to get it to pat it more. (I guess it has me well trained)
Yes it is a sign of affection as rabbits groom each other to show that they like each other.

My rabbit would lick my fingers when i stuck my hand in her cage. I just assumed she was licking the natural salt off my skin. Needless to say, she was very content when i put a salt wheel in her cage.

It's a sign of affection. Mama rabbits groom their babies as a sign of affection, so she's just passing the "love" on to you!

That's funny. She's giving you kisses. She's grooming you. That's what rabbits do to each other and it shows their affection towards one another - mother towards babies, siblings towards siblings, mom and dad rabbit, etc.
She likes you! Aawww.

Your bunny needs SALT!! Get her a salt lick. She's licking you because your skin tastes "salty" to her.
