Rabbit

How can I encourage my rabbit to “dig”?


I've had three rabbits before, and except for Lola, who had trouble walking for a while, none of my rabbits had long nails because they liked to dig in concrete and always kept their nails short and filed down. But this current rabbit of mine, although very active, doesn't dig anything in the concrete; he only likes soft, loose soil. He even digs up plants, but nothing that wears down his nails.

I've tried trimming his nails, but he's very, very afraid of having them cut. He fights too much and thinks I'm going to kill him (even though I used to hold him in the palm of my hand when he was a baby). Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to encourage his nails to wear down?
