  1. you have to give him something to chew on!  either a big stick or a piece of wood.  or you can get special stones at the pet store for then to chew on.  if you don't his teeth will continute to grow and he won't be able to eat!

    but yes it's normal.  rabbit's teeth continuously grow forever that's wy they need to shave them down by gnawing on stuff!!

  2. Unfortunately he has a problem with his teeth. Yes this could be harmful if he isnt treated soon. As you said he does need them filed as it will cause him discomfort while eating and in general so i would get them filed as soon as possible.

    Hope i helped :D

  3. Rabbits teeth are aways growing, just get him something hard he can chew on so it wears it down. I like getting wood toys from the pet shop and wal-mart for my bunny.

  4. That is not normal. You need to take him to a good vet and have it fixed or he could get an infection or abscess. Plus he won't be able to eat, if he can at all.
