QuestionI have a new mini Rex and just arrived a few days ago. He won't even let me pick him up to pet him. There 4 other kids here too. He will push me away and bite me. Please help
AnswerHi Ken,
Rabbits are prey animals. A large majority of them don't like to be picked up. I need more details to be able to help you.
How old is he?
Does he bite when you reach in the cage or just when you are holding him?
Were you able to meet the rabbits parents prior to purchasing him?
If so, were the parents aggressive?
Has he been neutered?
Is he biting hard or is he nipping?
Until I understand the full scope of the issues there is not a whole lot I can tell you. However you can read through the site below and it will give you some insight on rabbit behavior.
