Excessive peeing and pooing?

We just moved from Iceland to Jordan last Thursday with our three bunnies. It was a very long day with two 4 hour flights and 9 hours waiting in between. I was probably the worst day of my life, I was so nervous and scared that something was going to happen to them but they all seemed fine. Roger was even eating while on the conveyor belt...

They are all eating, drinking and acting normal, being playful etc. But my rex girl Mýsla and her mini lop husband Roger seems to be peeing and pooing a bit more than normally. The pee spots are pretty huge and they seem to have lost all forms of litter habits so I am cleaning to floors many many times a day. It is hard to believe that the amounts they poop and pee could come from two small bunnies:) Is this something to worry about? I am giving them bio-lapis in their water and giving them extra supreme science recovery liquid.

Thanks!
 
They are probably very stressed out and do what some humans do in similiar situations.

The lack of toilet training is probably related to a new territory and they may start off by marking it before they settle.

I would reduce their territory down for a few days and allow them to settle, there toilet training should improve and you may then be able to sort out where a litter tray would be best placed. You may need to have a couple of trays for a while as they sort themselves out.

Sounds like you are doing everything else well, they should settle before too long.
 
Is that Jordan in the middle east? If so I guess it is much hotter than Iceland which could explain why they are drinking more?
 
Hi:wave: Yes we are in the Middle East. But it is not so warm here and especially not inside.

Things are better now:) Got hold of a proper corner litter box yesterday and wooden pellets and filled it with hay and they are now using it almost all of the time. The bio-lapis seems to have had an impact and they are no longer drinking as much.

Thanks everyone!
