It is probably sick. Check for any missing patches of fur, abnormal lumps, or abnormal feces(poop). Feces should be firm little balls, not runny. Leave the food out all day, see if your rabbit eats. If it doesn't eat, try hand-feeding it. My rabbits love to be hand-fed. Gently push a piece of food into its mouth. See if it chews, or just drops the food. If it chews and swallows, keep feeding it. If not, see if it eats during the day. Make sure its bottle is full of clean, fresh water. If it does not eat or drink for 2-3 days, bring it to the vet.

Why Won't My Rabbit Eat?
He is sick! Get immediate attention of a rabbit-savvy veterinarian, a rabbit that does not eat for more than 2-3 days is in life-threatening danger : not eating might mean he has a blockage in the intestine, is in gastro-intestinal stasis or in great pain over some illness. Either way, he has to be seen by a vet to save his life!

Why does your rabbit keep eating small stones and will they hurt him?
Quickly run away this is not a rabbit but a sign from god and dont worry your rabbit will respawn in 3 days. Lets try a real answer. I have never seen a rabbit eat stones. This could be a sign he needs something to eat to wear his teeth down (a rabbit is a mono-fidant which means his teeth grow continually.) Try giving him a piece of fruit wood to chew on, anything but apricot which contains toxins. The stones will probablyu just pass thru his system but try adding some treats to his diet also to discourage the stone eating.

Healthy, normal bunnies DO eat enough. If your bunny isn't eating enough, something is wrong. Maybe the food is not good enough. Maybe you aren't giving your rabbit the right kind of food, or maybe the foot is rotten or just not good quality. Or maybe your rabbit is sick. If your rabbit is underweight and doesn't look healthy, you should bring the rabbit to a vet. It could also be your rabbit is extremely bored and depressed.
