Well my bunnies certainly are giving me the run around this week. Alfie is slowly recovering from his Stasis. He is eating and pooing more, but still not back to 100%.
One of my other bunnies now has tummy problems. Last week I noticed some mucus around a cluster of poo. I mentioned this to the vet when I was in there with Alfie and he gave me some fibreplex to give them both as they share a hutch and litter tray so I don't know which one has the problem. They have been having this now since last Saturday.
When we cleaned the litter tray out last night there was a massive clump of very soft poo - not watery but not far off, with a few normal pellets attached to it.
I searched on here for some advice and the consensus of opinion seems to be to take away pellets and veg for a few days and restrict them to hay and water. Does anyone have any advice on how long I should do this for? I felt so mean not giving them pellets this morning - they are now sulking!
Apart from the upset tum, they seem fine in themselves, chomping on hay, drinking, lots of poos and wees.
