Bald Bunnies?

[Millimi]

Hi,
Just today, I started noticing my bunnies are losing patches of fur. When I was petting them, the fur just came right off in my hand. It's just on the bunnies in clumps, it looks like normal fur but it's longer, so I know it's not on them. (It's hard to explain what it looks like. ) Since it's spring, is this just normal shedding or is something wrong?
Please help me!!! I get so worried when anything abnormal happens to any of my pets!

I wish I could help you, but thats never happened to my bunnies. Maybe they are just shedding their winter coats. Do you have a vet that you could talk to?

chances are they are just shedding their winter coats. It's amazing the fur that they can lose!!! If the skin looks dry or irritated in any way then you should see a vet but other than that you shouldn't have to worry!!! I get brushfuls out of my girls all the time!!!

Thanks for your help guys. My bunnies don't seem to be in pain or discomfort, so I think they'll be fine. It probably is their winter coat shedding since they are very furry!

I'm glad they are ok!
