QuestionI have had my rabbit for about 2 years. His name is Holland.A couple of days ago I let holland out and I notice it wasn't walking very good with his back legs. He has his poop stuck to his bottom too. I thought it was because of his fur. Well I took him out today and he is not using his legs at all. He just drags them. Its sad! I don't know what to do or what caused this. His offspring kind of walks like that too, but he has been doing it sence he was a baby. Holland just started. We let him out ( my husben and I ), Im just so worried. What can i do?
Answer Has your bunny seen a vet? If not then you need to bring him in ASAP. You can find a rabbit savvy veterinarian from the House Rabbit Society's list:

And, if finances are an issue, some vets will offer payment plans. CareCredit is also a way to get the extra funds you need for vet bills:

In the meantime, here are some resources on disabled rabbits:
