            Those are binkies, which are the sign of a happy rabbit!

              Yes, binkies.

              Similar to the popcorning that piggies do. Sometimes rabbits will do a straight up binky without the twisting or flicking legs out and many people call those “popcorn binkies”.

                  Have Flopsy done a full flop yet? It can look really scary, so don’t panic the first time you see it It’s when the bun sort of collapses and looks very dead. But it isn’t, it’s just super relaxed.

                  Just wanted to warn you so your heart doesn’t stop the first time you see it. Mine almost did
