This condition is frequently called "head tilt" or "wry neck", and is known scientifically as torticollis. This is a very serious condition with several possible causes, sometimes of a viral, parasitic, or bacterial nature. Symptoms may come on both gradually or immediately, and may include mild to severe head tilt, loss of appetite, depression, lethargy, head shaking, nausea, excessive salivation, teeth grinding (not to be confused with tooth purring), facial paralysis, drooping ear/lip/eyelid, inability to sit or stand upright, or nystagmus (eyes move rapidly in either a horizontal or vertical motion). This can condition can be fatal if left untreated. Immediate veterinary care by a rabbit-savvy veterinarian is strongly recommended.

it's also possible that one of its legs or something is hurt...either way, take your rabbit to the vet asap; rabbits are, unfortunately, quick to die :'(

Your rabbit has an inner ear infection which has affected it's balance. it's head will keep turning until it can't eat or drink and it will be continually rolling. This can be treated with antibiotics but I have only cured one of this problem. Good luck.

head tilt is when the bunny is sick and catched germs from people or other animals. when the bunny is sick it's head tilts, but they can still live their life. it is a disease, the bunny can live or die, because it cannot be cured.

It may have fleas or be over-excited. It may want attention or have an itch. I am not sure why it would flip though.

This is common for male rabbits just after they have "successfully" mated.

What happens if you bathe a rabbit and its head gets wet?

If a rabbit's head gets wet, it could get an ear infection. Baths are not usually necessary for rabbits. Healthy rabbits bathe themselves, and as a matter of course you should keep them away from very messy areas. If your rabbit is messy, something is wrong! Baths can be very dangerous for rabbits, whether their head stays dry or not. See the related question below for details and links.
