DotTheLop
New Kit
Hi hopefully I have done this all correctly as I have just joined this forum
My female mini lop Dot who is around 3 has been producing an excess of cecotropes for a few years now, I have personally run out of ideas so I am looking for some help
She has unlimited timothy hay and is fed a small amount of Excel Indoor Rabbit Nuggets.
She is currently not receiving any veg as this seems to make the issues worse
I have read up that some people have experienced issues with excess cecotropes from Excel food, so that might be the issue.
The main issue is that she always ends up sitting on them so I have to quite often clean her bottom which we both don't enjoy, even after the baths she still has matting
I don't believe that she is overweight or arthritic so overproduction is my guess
She has a clean bill of health from the vet including blood tests and lab results done on her faeces
