Hi, it is not unusual for different species to form bonds. Chickens are intelligent and so are rabbits and may be in need of companionship. While I would not call it normal, I would not call it unusual either. There should be nor harm in letting this friendship continue, except for certain parasites on the skin that can be transmitted so check them each regularly for mites and bugs.
