  I have Charlie out hopping around and he keeps rolling over – like flopping onto his side and doing a complete turn from his side to his belly back to his side – it is the strangest thing – but SO cute. Is this common for bunnies? I’ve never seen him do it

  Usually means they are trying to flop and get comfortable My Badger does this a lot when hes trying to find that perfect sweet spot on the bed or floor

  I’ve never seen Chewie roll over (like a doggie) but I would gladly pay to

  Amelia flops on her side then rolls over to have her chest and tummy in the air

  My Honey does this when she feels super comfortable with her setting and sometimes she will run around the garden then flop down and jump straight back up as though she is expressing happiness

  Yes Dorothy will roll over halfway sometimes after she’s been in her hay for a long time, then sometimes she’ll roll all the way over like a dog! It’s so cute

  I was so surprised to find Buffy doing this a week after we got her, because my late Ted never did! I think she flops too dramatically with too much momentum, and it makes her roll over. She also looooves tummy rubs, and she will roll over onto her back for me to pet her there.

  My bunnies sort of roll onto their back with tummy exposed and then back on to their side. I love it. Very dramatic flopping!
