OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

Welcome and congrats on your new bunny!
Lucerne is known as alfalfa hay in the States. It’s a richer type hay – higher in protein. It’s fine for young, growing bunnies but needs to be cut back for adults. Grass hay’s good now too.
The jumping on you and licking you is awesome! She’s obviously pretty social. You are being groomed!
The poops are probably territorial. Also, being young, she’s likely not litter trained yet. Check out the litter training tips under Bunny Info on this site. The scattering poop will reduce in time when she feels the territory is marked & is litter trained. It may make a reappearance from time to time though like when puberty hits or she discovers new territory.
