  Hello! I’m new to the forums, so please excuse me if I put this in the wrong part of the forum.
  
  I wanted to teach my rabbit, Ajax, some tricks to keep his mind occupied, and give us something to do whilst he’s out and about.
  
  I was wondering what some easy starter tricks would be (possibly very easy agility training?), and what the suggested reward treat would be. Also, do rabbits respond well to clicker training?
  
  Thank you in advance!

  Welcome! Ajax looks adorable (in avatar?)
  
  I have clicker-trained bunnies. They are usually very food motivated so it’s easy!
  
  Here are some great resources for training your bunny.

  Alright, I’ve been trying, but I don’t know if Ajax is going to be treat oriented. I’ve tried giving him several things: pellets, greens, plum, banana, all foods he likes trying to see if any of them he likes enough to eat outside his cage. All of them he’d eat every once and a while, but none with enough fervor for me to warrant using it as a treat.
  
  Do you have any suggestions? I don’t know what to do for a reward if he doesn’t seem interested in food.
