Rabbit

Is my male rabbit nesting?


Hi! Just for some background, I have two male buns both neutered and bonded. They are free roam in my studio and have cosy places to hide away if they choose to + hay feeder and litter tray spot. My younger one (Toto) is around 4 and has started going around my room to take my socks and any other clothes on the floor and sort of tug at them before running off with them. At first I didn’t know what he was doing and just thought it was normal adorable bunny antics, but then i realised he has taken them to a hidey place under the bed and built a sort of nest? Watching him more closely, he takes them into this little carrier and digs at them to sort of organise, then hops out to get more. Then after a bit he flops and has a rest, and gets back to it. I read they might do this due to stress/ boredom, but he seems contented and has plenty of access to tunnels and chews and i play with them a lot throughout the day. He is also eating, drinking and pooping normally, so just wondering if anyone else has had this experience and if it has ever been a bad sign? I am also reluctant to mess with it and tidy it up, especially if he’s enjoying himself.
