I think I’d stick with the brush, you’d be tugging out the growing in fur as well as the stuff she’s shedding, so it wouldn’t help much. She’d just have to regrow it all over again.

This is normal. I sometimes chunk out the fur like you are doing as well, but most of my rabbits don’t like this. If she tolerates this as long as it easily pulls out that would be okay to continue this.

Coco is in a major molt right now too – and I use both the brush – but also the “Pluck” technique – I’ve noticed sometimes when I brush her she has “sensitive” spots, where I can only guess that the new hair is coming in (?)

After I brush her as much as she will stand, I pluck out the lingering tufts ( only if they come right out) and then use my hand to smooth her down several times. I find that I get quite a bit of loose fur which most likely was disturbed, but not brought up by the brush. She will allow me to go the length of her body doing this and I quick pluck at her bum – where she likes being groomed Least.

But Oh – The sad sight of a bunny in full molt. Could there be a more pathetic – yet attempting to look dignified animal?

Coco tooth purrs too – I take it as the “Oh yeah, thats right – keeping doing that, baby”

That looks fine to me.  Pepper sheds down to very fine black velvet in patches as her new coat comes in on her back and butt, and gentle plucking helps clear out the dead stuff.  I know someone whose bun sheds down to naked pink patches but he’s fine with that/.

Felony molts like that. He looks super pathetic when his mane comes out, but he kind of looks like a baby bunny again when it starts to grow back out.

She does look like she’s got some longish hair. If she isn’t running from you when you do it, she probably recognizes it as a subserviant rabbit helping her groom.
