Jasper will lay flat on the floor if there is a hand or a foot nearby. Evidentally a hand or foot outstretched means we must pet him. Now he has decided that when Rhiannon stretchs her hand out to him she wants to pet him too. In reality she wants to slime him lol. Does anybody elses bunny do this?

The other thing he does that I'm not sure if it's normal is poop eating. Not just the edible stuff either he will eat he regular poop. Japser doesn't eat it all the time just here and there. It's gross but I can deal with it if it's normal (if I must anyway lol).

I have seen Eddie eat poop. just once in a while. Apparently, once in a while, it's good stuff. And he doesn't eat a lot that I know of. I mean, it's not like he's eating it like he chows down on pellets.

Mine don't do this, but Lullabelle does - lays her head down when she wants pets. Usually she nudges first, then lays her head down. Now what's really odd is that Lollipop will lay in the superman position with her hind legs straight out and her head completely resting on the floor. She looks like she's sick/not feeling good, but she's just super duper comfy and relaxed. LOL

Maybe we just have weirdo males.

As long as mine isn't the only wierdo lol. The thing that cracks me up is when he lays flat for any outstreched hand or foot. I'm waiting for the baby to get ahold of him and slime him lol.

Or grab the ears! Ah, he'll learn. LOL And if she slimes, it'd be hilarious to watch how long he cleans himself in that spot. HAHAHAHA!

My Jim has always had some kind of bond with James.  So when James was a baby and laying down and whatnot when they aren't moving around like walking Jim use to jump up onto him LOL.  He has always let James touch him.

You should see Jack and Jim when you've picked them up to clip their nails or when Petri cuts Jim's teeth.  They spend minutes grooming all over themselves to get rid of the human cootie germs LOL.

This morning I got up and it was pitch black like it is at this time of the year and Jim and Jack were sleeping on their bedding next to the head of my bed.  Jack was laying on his side in the roadkill position sleeping.  Now that is what you call really relaxed! LOL.

Only Baby really does that superman position with her head on the floor waiting to be petted or sleeping.  The other two lay like that, but not with their heads on the floor.

I've never seen my three eat any poops at all, but I am sure it's normal :)  My boys are so well littertrained there are no stray poops for them to munch on.  Only silly Baby is a big poop head pooping everywhere.
