Strawberry has been doing poo like this since early this morning I'm assuming because it was smeared all over the Lino

She's not eating her pellets but still eating hay. What's going on!!! She's also sits when she's done one of those poos because its now stuck to her bottom fur. Tried to clean some of it off but she wouldn't let me clean it properly

Eta she's now eating her pellets but what would cause poo like that? All I've given her is pellets and hay. Bun bun poos are normal so Im stumped at what could be happening

I agree that she needs to see a Vet. Diarrhoea in a Baby Rabbit is serious and always needs prompt Veterinary treatment.

I would remove her pellets for the moment and just let her eat hay. It is also very important that she has a good fluid intake.
 
They've gone back to normal now, I spoke to the vet and they think its possibly because she's got access to food every day now and her system may not be use to it

?! She didn't have access to food every day ?!

Not sure your vet has given the best advice to just 'leave it' :(
 
Doesn't look right to me and I would take her to the vet.

What do you mean about access to food every day?
 
She was previously in a pen with lots of much larger bunnies, she doesn't have to fight for food? Her and bun bun are underweight. Her poos are back to round balls and shes eating,drinking and running around just fine.
