        Hi hoping therse photos work – this is my small flemish – do you think it’s a splat leg rabbit? Or is there anything else ? He cleans himself and can hop around ok, just off to the side.

          I’m unsure, but something does not look normal. It could potentially be splay leg development, but the legs themselves seem small, so it may be something else. I would highly recommend taking your rabbit to an exotic, rabbit-experienced vet to have this assessed. Since you have pictures, you might be able to send them for a quick consult as well.

            This looks more like a spinal deformity (birth defect). You see similar abnormalities in dogs.
