  My friend decided to get a new bunny , she had no experience and thought it would be fun …little did she know it was going to be hard. She is going away for college and decided she didn’t want it anymore around the same time I was looking to add a new pet to my life . I have a 10 year old dog name fluffy and I have had him for over 8 years . I told my friend i wanted the bunny and she gave it to me . I didn’t know much so I went on YouTube and the internet and just did nothing but research on everything . Few months go by and he is as happy as can be ! No issue , he is still in the cage she gave me but now I’m planning to extend that to a C&C cage. A few days ago I noticed something …and idk if I should be worried or if I’m over thinking it but here it goes ; when I take him out to play he use to just explore and play & do cute bunny stuff and then all the sudden be has started to go in a figure 8 around my legs and what seems to me (Sniffing/bitting/licking) I dont know 100% exactly which one or if all but it scares me and I run from him because I don’t want him to bite me . Can anyone tell me why this could be happening ?

  Ah. It sounds like he is courting you. How old is he?

  She got him from a pet store and they told her he was 3 month and that was back in Dec . So that would make him 10 months.

  Mmm. maybe he’s a late bloomer. Or larger breed which mature a bit later then the smaller breeds.
  Did you go through any of the bunny puberty behaviours earlier on? https://binkybunny.com/BUNNYINFO/tabid/53/CategoryID/10/PID/940/Default.aspx
  
  Is it possible he is actually a she??
