Dry fur and excessive scratching in a rabbit can point to several issues, from environmental dryness to external parasites like mites or fleas, or even an underlying skin condition. Rabbits are very sensitive, and these symptoms shouldn't be ignored as they can lead to skin infections if left untreated. Check for any visible flakes, scabs, or bald patches on the skin. Ensure their environment isn't too dry and that they have a good diet. However, for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, a veterinary check-up is essential.
