Take her to the vet NOW! Call aroundfor rabbit vets that are open on Saturdays, emergencie vets, or vetswilling to make an exception for you. Diarrhea in babyrabbits is always serious, and this sounds like mucoid enteritis to my(unexperienced) mind.

I agree. She needs to see the vet.

What does her stomach feel like? Does it feel bloated or oddly round?

How old is she?

DO NOT sell her in this condition. If it is MucoidEnteropathy, the chances that she'll pull through are not in her favor.Wait until she recovers (if she does) before attempting any sale onher.

I would also thoroughly check the rest of the litter. Anyoneshowing any signs of similar nature should see the vet as well.

:rose:thank you so much:rose:



i took the intire litter 2 the emergency vet last night turn out shehas bloat the rest are fine she stayed at the vet and i phoned thismorning to see how shes doing (i wasnt expecting her to last the nightbut luckily the vet was brilliant with her and seems 2 no a lot btrabbits) its a gud job i noticed so early.

turns out my little brother was feeding her some buttercups whilst iwas at work so im spending the day attatching padlocks 2 all myhutches!!

i would never sell a sick rabbit and i never sell them to people that i think wouldnt take care of them
