Any advice or tips would be really helpful -
I went to clean out my buns hutch (Which I last did last night and everything was normal) and i noticed a pile of squashed cecotrophs on his blanket and litter tray, which is unusual. By this point he was running around the garden and I could see his bum was mucky. He normally eats loads of hay and he's not had a mucky bum before. As he's white it looked quite drastic, (and smelt very bad too) but I managed to get it all clean again after a while using a damp cloth.
I'm keeping him inside for now so I can keep an eye on him, my first concern was flystrike as he's an outside bun. Are there any chances this could still happen even now hes clean and I couldnt see any eggs or anything?
He hasn't stopped eating - he's munching away on hay as I type.
Should I take him to the vets to be checked out in the morning?
Sorry I've no experience of this so as i said any comments will be helpful. I've not changed his diet, he has 1/2 handful of excel nuggets a day and all the hay he can eat.
thanks
