How can you calm a rabbit who is scared and skittish and shy all the time?

Keep the environment quiet. Do not subject the rabbit to loud noises or sudden movement. When you approach the rabbit, move slowly and speak quietly. Train the rabbit to trust you. Hold a small piece of apple or another treat where it can be seen and smelled. See if the rabbit will come out of a hiding place to approach the treat and take some of it while you are holding the treat. Then drop the treat and pet the rabbit on the back or side so that the rabbit associates being touched with a nice treat. If you can put a rabbit in a small enclosed area that is safe, it helps to just sit on the floor calmly and let the rabbit explore and approach you when it wants to. Most rabbits enjoy having a large cardboard tube for a hiding place so that they are not always out in the open. Also, remember that some rabbits are friendlier than others just by nature. It may take a while to get a shy rabbit to relax and be calm around people.

How much and how often should you feed your 13 pound averaged sized pet rabbit?
i have a 12.5 pound french lop eared rabbit. He eats about 1 1/3 cup of rabbit feed each night. And a little bit of parsley through the day. You can feed your rabbit a little over a cup every day at the same time, or feed him/her half in the morning and the remaining at night. BUT be sure to stay with the feeding routine. If you feed your rabbit all his/her food at the same time, remember what time you fed your rabbit and feed him/her that same time the next day.

How do you tame your rabbit?
To tame a rabbit, you have to spend time with him/her. At first, talk to him/her quietly so that they get used to the sound of your voice. When they are calm, offer a treat such as a piece of carrot. When they are eating, slowly move your hand and start to stroke them. The rabbit will get used to this, and will start to associate you will food and will know that you are not a threat to them. Soon, your rabbit will be calm around you and he/she will be tame. Kneel or crouch down when you are around them, so that you are at their level, and therefore they will not feel threatened.

What should you do if your scared to touch your rabbit because every time you touch it from the front so it can see your hands it moves quickly and scares you?
Keep your hands about 10 feet away from the rabbit on the floor. Put some carrots or rabbit food near your hands where you can touch them. Wait for a while for the rabbit to come and sniff the food (the key here is patience). Then keep your hands on the floor, without moving them. Let the rabbit smell them and soon you will be able to hold the rabbit. Remember, even flinching will scare the rabbit.
