  When I first bring him home, his coat is very smooth and nice. Now it’s rough and uncomfortable to touch. Any idea how to revert it back to normal?

  Hi there,
  
  Can you describe your buns diet and living conditions? Often poor coat condition has to do with the diet. There are other skin conditions (such as mites) that might affect it also.

  How old is your bunny? There are rex coats that do not meet breed standards, which would come in when they get their adult coat. These variations can have a rough or fuzzy appearance.
