  Hi all, I just have a question for those of you who are more knowledgable about this than I am… I am worried because the breeder I am picking up my bunny from just posted a video on Instagram and the whole litter of kits were itching like mad (or seemed to be). I got concerned and asked the breeder, and she said it is because they recently opened their eyes so the light is bothering them and they want to itch at their eyes. I’m just worried that it might be mites or something and I fear for the health of my baby bun whom I have not picked up yet. What could it be?? Is this normal??
  
  Here is the video for reference:

  Hi
  I do not have any experience with this but rabbitsonline do because they also include topics about breeding rabbits
  I think there would be more people there informed about this type of thing

  It doesn’t look too bad to me, just normal grooming behaviour. I can’t believe the 2 (3?) in the back remained sleeping while the others bopped about.
