Sorry to see what's going on with Ebony. If at all possible, I would say that you should have Ebony examined by a veterinarian. They should be able to shave some of the hair around the affected area to get a very good look at what exactly is happening, and to what extent the affected area is afflicted. Unspayed female rabbits are much more prone to the outer and inner portions of their genitals having disease processes. These can include superficial infections, abscesses, or disease processes caused by hormonal imbalances. Hope this helps.
