Response to why does our rabbit continually rock from side to side and mutilate herself?

Hi Janie--have seen this problem in rabbits with inner ear infections, and some does will never be "mommies". They will either ignore their young and allow them to die, or they will even eat their newborn babies. After trying her twice, it would be best not to use her for breeding purposes. This is a very common disorder in female rabbits. I would venture to guess it affects in the neighborhood of 1-50 females rabbits. Good luck
