Normal shedding: proper care a healthy rabbit will usually change her coat twice a year. if all things are normal, the shed areas will regrow fur as the old coat falls out. some unfortunate rabbits seem to shed all the time.. Not all rabbits go through the typical spring and fall shedding cycle. some rabbits seem to shed on a nearly constant basis. this is often due to poor breeding, such as breeding rabbits who are closely related. inbreeding can interrupt the rabbit's normal response to changes in day length that trigger shedding.. Molting is the technical term that vets use to describe the process where your rabbit loses hair each season. the first time you see your rabbit shedding, you'll wonder where it's all coming from..
When rabbits moult, they typically start by shedding fur from their head, which spreads down the neck and back and then down the sides of their body, finishing on their rump. however, some rabbits seem not to have any set pattern and will lose fur in patches from all over their body at the same time.. Sometimes, though, you will find your bunny sitting in a white cloud of molting fur. there can be so much fur, in fact, that it looks like a doe has been trying to turn the entire cage into a nest. with this sort of molt, remove the excess fur daily and brush your bunny to remove as much dead fur as possible.. Rabbit hair (also called rabbit fur, cony, coney, comb or lapin) is the fur of the common rabbit.it is most commonly used in the making of fur hats and coats, and is considered quite valuable today, although it was once a lower-priced commodity in the fur trade..
