I found 2 drop of rabbit blood on the carpet, what body part could it come from?

So I check both buns 3 times already, I can't find a trace of any injury. There is no broken nail, their vent opening is clean. I then feel thru their fur, I can't feel any injury. And if there were any injury, it would has to be at the bottom of their body, somehow drop on the carpet. And yet, I can't see any injury.

Where could 2 drop of blood come from?

I also check their usual urine spots, there is no blood anywhere (they pee on white towels)
 
they are a pair of male + female. Both have been spay / neuter many years ago. Now I did notice each time when the female scent gland is giving out some scent, there is some chasing around. And I just check it, it's dirty, so I did just clean both buns' scent glands. But I still need to find out where the blood come from
 
Have you checked their hocks? Sometimes sore hocks can be almost covered by foot fluff!
 
okay, I just check both hocks. There is no blood come out from any of their hocks. But how can you tell it's normal? as that spot is always red?

I just check it the 2nd time, 1 of my bun's hock does looks a bit too red. What's a good treatment for sore hocks? Aloe Vera gel?

That's good, then, I was concerned that there might be something sinister going on inside.
 
how does the above product better than say Polysporin?

and since last time I read the books on sore hock, there was no cure. So what do you people do for ongoing treatment?

for that matter, what do you people use? I like to buy the best Germicidal Barrier Ointment, is it f10, or is there some other product better than this?
