  So I have a few questions regarding collars
  I know everywhere I look it up it says don’t do it, weak bones, stress, and all that
  So I have a 3 month old plush lop and had a collar on her for a while before I looked it up, she was totally comfortable, except maybe at the beginning where she was just curious about the jingling bell and wanted to taste it haha
  The collar is extremely easilly detachable and if you give it the slightest pull will come right off and she seems extremely comfortable having it on for extended periods of time. In fact, doesn’t even pay any mind to it at all anymore
  Are there any dangers that could possibly present itself with a collar like this? It is very lightweight and small even for her and hangs loosely as well so there is a good inch of room at all times as it doesn’t really fit her so it can just be slipped over her head to take it off too(though I find it detaches too easily even for that)

  Collars are generally considered dangerous for bunnies for reasons you already stated-risk of getting caught on something, or if they tried to claw it off it could get stuck or they could hurt themselves, chafing of the neck, etc. If the collar is truly as easily detachable as you state, there is definitely less risk of those things, but if the collar comes off so easily, is there any point in her wearing it anyway? I wouldn’t use it when she is out of your supervision on the off chance something could happen.
