WAY too small!

I know it's hard, we all love to spoil them, but definitely stop the fruit. Spinach every day is not ideal. Try some fresh herbs (they can have pretty much all of them apart from chives) instead. Ideally they should have access to at least 60 square ft. 24/7.

Reduce pellets to no more than 1 tbsp a day. Try giving a variety of grass hay. What treats do you give? You could use pellets as treats. What greens? Is she free roam?

Congrats on your new babies! Excess caecotrophes could be from the stress of moving home and/or diet too rich. Keep them on a mostly hay diet, use a variety of grass hays including meadow hay. You can give pellets but just a small amount, not more than 1 tbsp. a day. Don't give them guinea pig...

I would post in UK rabbit group and House Bunnies UK and give location.

Please don't breed. Get them neutered. If you have a male and a female you will end up with lots of bunnies and you already can't afford vet fees, how are you going to get all the babies neutered and vaccinated, etc?

Could well be ear mites. Vet will be able to help. Don't try to remove the scabs. Hope he gets better soon.

I would reduce the pellets and veg and give her a variety of grass hays.

Good advice on how to make it secure etc. here: Outdoor Housing

I would not introduce them at all and make sure bunny has their own room at your parents where dog cannot access or even get near as your bunny could get very stressed.

Emergency spay?

When did she last poop? It is not unusual for bunnies to go for 8 hours or longer without pooping. If she is eating that suggests there is no blockage, they do not eat if there is a true blockage.

This is a good idea, you don't actually have to attach it to the bed, you can use L-shaped metal connectors to make a rectangle that just fits around the bed.

Beg, borrow, sell stuff, do whatever you need to do. Bunny needs to be taken to a rabbit vet. She is in pain.

They are definitely at higher risk of various health problems, that has been known for decades. The World Small Animal Veterinary Association and the Federation of European Companion Animal Veterinary Associations have organised lobbying campaigns to develop anti-brachycephaly laws. It is a huge...

Gorgeous bunny! Always a good idea to get a check-up with a rabbit vet when you have a new bunny, especially a stray. They can *** them, give you some idea of age and you can schedule a neutering appointment.
