Hi

I found small piles of slightly runny poo! Its mixed is with normal dropping in a little pile. Does this require vet monitoring? I tryed to give him critical care but he wasnt having it, so mixed it in with the excel pellets. Having read "rabbits for dummies" it says that "Rabbits can also develop soft pudding like stools often mixed with noraml hare round droppings. These stools aren't true diarrrhea, and although they do represent a a diease of the gastrointestinal tract that should be addressed it is not a dire emergency".

If it's just a little bit then I wouldn't usually take them to the vet. Don't give any watery vegetables for a bit and make sure he is eating his hay. Just keep a close eye on him. You could add some pre/probiotic to his water and sometimes this helps.
