Bored Bunny?

[Cavbudg]

Hey everyone,

So I’ve noticed that my 1 year old bunny has been spending all day sitting in his corner. He and his friend (Koda) live in a old cubby house that has an indoors and outdoors area (Get locked up at night) so he has lots of space to run around.

I have cardboard boxes, old cat toys, old bird toys, hay in paper bags for them to rip, a big box thing with dirt (although they aren’t big diggers like my old bunny was, I’ve seen Apache dig once for about 10 seconds when we first got him) and bunny toys but he still seems uninterested. I understand that I don’t expect to see Apache going all hind legs fetching sticks etc but he just seems less playful then he was a few months ago. Even today, I gave them a new couple of toys and Apache was interested in it for a few minuets then went back to his corner. 

I’m training them in target training but recently Apache hasn’t been interested in that either.

So I was wondering, should I be worried?

Do you have any toy suggestions?

Thanks

Does he appear ill in any other way?(not eating or pooping.) if not, I wouldn’t be too worried.
My rabbits really like if I switch out their toys every time I clean. I have a whole collection of toys (10-20) and I usually give them about 5 each week and I switch them out every week.
My rabbits love snack shak logs. Feed this sparingly though as it contains alfalfa.(only feed the kind without seeds.
They also really enjoy paper bags filled with hay and treats. I rip the bag though so they can smell the hay and treats and play with them.
I do agility with one of my bunnies ( he’s the only one that enjoys it) and maybe you can do that to keep their brains busy.
Hope I helped!!!

Thanks for the tips

He seems completely healthy so far and I have been planning to get them into agility soon, I just need to get them to follow the target first, haha 

Thanks again for replying
