in the rabbit hutch wheni cleaned it yesterday i found worm like things.

i dunno if the buns have worms or maybe its fly lavae i just dont know :?
 
Amy they were probably small maggots..which means flies have been laying eggs in there... :( the hutch will need cleaning out thoroughly and check your bunnies bottoms!
 
Check their bums ASAP!!! Flystrike is NOT something you want to see your buns go through :cry:
To prevent this from happening again you must clean your hutch daily, inspect your buns for flys, and possibly get a smaller screen on the hutch to protect your buns. I think there are also some rabbit friendly sprays that you can spray on the hutch!
