Bunny

does anyone recognize this behavior?


Hi, I was wondering if anyone recognizes this – I've owned rabbits for a couple of years and used to volunteer in a rabbit shelter but haven't seen this before. My 7 year old neutered rabbit has been throwing her head back like in the video since about two weeks. I have not been able to determine any other abnormal behavior, she eats, drinks, breathes, moves and poops well, does not seem to be in pain and regularly flops and zooms with her partner. ​It does not seem to be something compulsive, whenever she hears a sound she simply stops. It also doesn't seem to be limited to whenever she is eating. It's been happening from around 0 to 5 times a day as far as I can tell.
I've visited my regular local vet with her who also did not recognize this behavior and could not flag any urgent issues, and am now in the process of ​finding a vet with more rabbit knowledge. In the meantime, I was wondering if anyone here recognizes this? Thank you in advance! ​
