I have two rabbit (one in the picture Mow and Poppet) living together and I have noticed some dropping in the run this evening that are joined together like a chain with fur. Mow is moutling and poppet does keep licking him.

I do have some dried pineapple treats and I have gave both the rabbit a few of these. I not sure what rabbit has produced these dropping.

Is there anything I should do?

Is it a good sign that they are comming out?

Thanks, Louise

Thank you, I have brushed Mow a few times last week, and I'm now covered in scratches he just won't stay still.

They seem to be drinking and eating well, thank you for reassuring me.

:wave: It would be a good idea to warm him if you haven't already as i ahve been told this can be a sign of worms ( the poo) , our rabbits tend to have it in the heat or when there stressed for some reason ( we haven't had our buns wormed yet but we're planning on doing so).:)

Hi Louise this is normal when buns are moulting
 
hi

I read you give pinapple well try the actual juice we give ours that now and then a vet told us that trick as its supposed to help with furballs.
 
Ok, thank you very much, I'll give that a go.

Silly question: What do you give it to them in and how much? :)

Louise

Just to add they have just started a course of Panacur for worming.
