That is a very good sign as he is saying " I love you very much" and it's one of the highest compliments a bunny can pay us as not all bunnies will lick their owners

Re: is hand/arm licking a good sign
Bruce only started licking me about a year ago - he is 8 now. I think the issue with him was that he did not want to lick my hands and due to the current set up he gets much more of an opportunity to get at my nose these days, which is apparently the best place to lick. Flo doesn't lick (what shocker! )

Layla was licking hudad's fingers the other night. I suspect it may have something to do with the fact that he had traces of bananananananananana chip on them

Ohhh I feel honoured! My Mum tried to get him to lick her hand and he wasn't interested, just kept on licking mine maybe it's that bit of fenugreek crunchie I gave him the other day, hmm

It's definitely a good sign! Joey likes to give my hands a good lick and even my forehead sometimes
Think of it as bunny kisses

Awww very good sign, how cute! Nibbler licks me but only on my clothes, sometimes I think he's giving me a bunny kiss, sometimes I think he's just enjoying licking fabric, as he does..

Re: is hand/arm licking a good sign
OOOOOOOOOOH! You are bunny blessed! That is the utmost compliment a bunny can give you!
Grooming is the most important way of expression in bunny society. And by grooming you, your bunny has accepted you into it's warren(or family). In a warren there is a "Royal' rabbit who is boss and it directs things. if the Royal bunny presents itself for grooming, the other bunny MUST groom it to remain accepted. A Royal rabbit show favor by grooming a subject.
Bunnies are the best!

Um, this is just so hard...does it start with the letter 'D' as in DAISY! Daisy of 'the entire world is mine and I just let you mere human in it to give me noms' He is a cutie and a little love though! So much personality in such a wee bun!
Did you ever wonder if he is just trying to get back at you for giving him a girls name?

Perhaps! Although he is boarding at the vets at the moment while I am away - I'm not sure they will put up with his demands! I am in for a hard time when I get him home!

Willow used to lick me when she was a baby. Then she got her hormones and it's never happened since
