Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

Cecals or diarrhoea? UD pics

Thanks, but I've had a look at that link before and none really match with what Rose is producing.
They're pale and light brown more like her fecal pellets, but are varying between watery and oddly shaped and too big.
Still waiting to see if she's producing any normal pellets. She's only three months old.
To be honest, because Rose is only 3 months old, and if you think it MAY be diarrhoea, I'd defnitely look at at least ringing the vets, because diarrhoea is very serious in young buns (not trying to panic you!) and if it diarrhoea then she'd need to see a vet ASAP.
A photo would help though! :wave:
I've tried to get a photo but the lighting is useless so nothing is really clear.
Already in a panic! She'll be off to the vets if it's diarrhoea, I just want to make sure I'm not overreacting to cecals! She's had them before though and they've not looked like this.
Does flash help? :wave:
ETA: Just seen your update, hm. Could she have eaten anything that might have caused diarrhoea? :wave:
She seems fine in herself.. Flash was on.. I'll post the photo I managed to get once I find my phone (misplaced it in my panic

Just saw your update, edited my post but you were too quick :lol:
Don't panic, panicing achieves nothing in situations like this. Staying calm is the best way, that way you're not affecting Rose as well as if she's inside she'll probably be picking up on your nerves!

She stole some of Humphrey's (my other rabbit, they're separated with a divide at the minute in the shed) fibafirst stick which he pushed through to her side accidently. I don't think she got that much at all before I took it off her though. Can't think of anything else really.
As well as these odd ones.. They all seem to be different (and look smaller than they are in these photos). I wasn't able to photograph the one that I originally thought looked like diarrhoea. It was much more watery than these and a bit darker.
(Sorry it's huge
)I think that's wee yes.
There was also 15 or so normal golden fecal pellets compared to the couple of odd ones, so I don't think it's cecals or diarrhoea.. But I don't know what it is!
That's good that there is normal poos there as well. it doesn't sound like diarrhea then, does it? hm. Strange!
Very strange! Plus normal poos are as golden as ever too.
Pictures were delayed as she decided she wanted to play with the tent and cardboard box and not go back in her pen so she's feeling fine too.
She would have been straight at the vets if I thought it was diarrhoea, don't worry. :thumb:
Everything seems as normal with her today though.

Haha, that made me smile!
She's not got run access at the minute so don't know where she'd have found a stash of bugs! :lol:
