  About an hour ago I was Laying on my bed with my bunny Tarzan when I noticed he was dragging his front leg when he hopped around. He also wasn’t putting it down when he sat. I checked his paw and his nails and his leg and nothing seemed wrong. I could move it around and he will sometimes use it to hop. He is eating an pooping and is just as energetic as normal. Is it possible that he was born this way and I just never noticed? If so what should I do? I don’t think I can afford to take him to the vet. Please help.

  If he’s not putting weight on his leg, it seems like it’s painful to use it. Unfortunately I can only suggest that you to take him to a vet if it persists.

  Could he have fallen from somewhere? It sounds like it is, at the very least, a sprain. You will want to have a vet look at it to make sure it isn’t something more serious.
