  hey everyone! I haven’t posted really anything on here and I would like you to meet honey
  
  he is a nearly 2 year old Netherland dwarf
  
  I’ve just come home from work this morning and found his hair all ruffled up like 3 little mo hawks
  
  Is this just a big shed on its way? (We are currently recovering from hair in the stomach which lead to abit of had and a couple of nights staying at the vet 🙁 Or if this more the creation of his bonded friend over grooming him?
  
  look forward and appreciative to anyone taking time out of there busy day to help me figure out what’s going on here 🙂

  It could be a big shed. His recent tummy trouble could have been set off by the start of a big shed. That’s very common, something happens in the rabbit rabbit body at the start of a big molt. If he is shedding, you’ll notice if you pet him in good lighting. There will be like a cloud of fine fluff. If you wet your hand before you pet him you’ll catch quite a bit of fluff.
  
  When two rabbits have had a row, you tend to see “solid” tufts of fur around the bun area.
