I got my rabbit about 6 months ago. It's not trained and i dont kno how. I tried giving it treats when she does tricks but SHE NEVER DOES ANY TRICKS! How do i train her to sit, lay down, and all the basic things?
1. Always use positive feedback; praise your rabbit. Do not criticize, scold, or hit; this will only serve to alienate your rabbit.
2. Speak softly and gently to your rabbit to induce him to listen to you.
3. Use repetition. For example, when you want to litter box train your rabbit, you might say the following while letting the rabbit smell the contents of the litter box: 'Do pebbles, Smokey. Do pebbles.' Or 'Do puddle, Smokey. Do puddle.'
4. Don't force your rabbit to do something. Just guide him and let him go, if he resists or tries to hop away.
5. Spend at least an hour or two each day for one or two weeks working on the new behavior with your rabbit.
6. Remember that rabbits are rabbits. They are not cats or dogs or any other animal, so they will not act like any other animal. They will only manifest rabbit behavior.
Tips:
Sit on the floor with your rabbit for one to two hours everyday for one or two weeks and gently remind your rabbit of the behavior you want him to learn.
Sometimes rabbits unlearn a habit and you may have to retrain them.
Praise your rabbit lavishly, and avoid scolding, so you don't alienate your rabbit.

Litter Training Your Rabbit by Margaret D.
When I was litter training my bunny I put some of her droppings in the litter box so she would know to go there, and in a few days she was going on her own.
Where to put the litter tray by will V.
When you first get your rabbit he isn't trained to how you want him to be. So a nice way to start off with you rabbit is to put the litter tray where he first starts to do his business, from then on he will always put his waste in the litter tray.
