Problems with rabbit's poop

[zuppa]

If you could keep her on hay for a few days and see if there's any changes, one day is too short time I think.

I thought about you and only reason I can think is that she's growing and reached age when she doesn't need 16% protein it's too rich for her so I would keep her on hay for a few more days if this improves after a week I would change her pellets to adult pellets with 13% protein and would also be strict with dosing them. She's mini sized and her portions should be smaller, only babies get unlimited pellets but i start limiting at about 16 weeks, I know you limit already but maybe protein is too high.

Other thing is that there maybe some of ingredients in her food that are surplus for her, I see there are some quite egzotic ingredients here I will post composition again at the end of my comment.

If she still have those soft wet stinky zeppelins after one week on hay and water then I don't know maybe check her liver but I have no experience with that, maybe JBun could suggest what tests could be done.

My personal opinion is that she just reached age when her pellets are too rich for her body but there could be more opinions on that hopefully you will get more responses here

Yes, @zuppa that is a good idea.she is probly growing out of 16% protein. Now that she is older you should go get the 13% or lower pellets, don't change it to much to fast because that can cause its own problems. Let us know how it is going though!

I think that you are right. I don't think that she has a liver problem because these poops doesn't apear all the time, only in a specific situation and at specific hour.
The problem is that I have 2 kg of this Beaphar pellet left hahaha
I will give her less, maybe not 30g but like 15g? And after she eats it I will buy her pellets for adult rabbits
Thank you all for suggestions, I am happy that everything is fine with her!

It takes more than a day off pellets and free feeding a grass hay, for the microflora in the cecum to balance out and correct itself Try reading these links. They explain how the cecum works, the digesyive issues that can happen with the cecum, and some ways certain problems can be corrected.

Also remember that diet isn't the only possible cause of digestive issues, just the most common.

Thanks, I read this links but I don't think that my rabbit has any of this disorders, it doesn't look like that. I will give her a really small amount of pellets everyday and see what happens because I think that @zuppa is right and my rabbit eats just too much protein. Hope it helps and it is not a really serious problem, just something wrong with diet and not exactly with my bunny

update, this poops appeared less wet and smaller than before. Here is the pic with a comparison to normal poop. @JBun, can you please look at these?

Hi there!! My mini lop boy had poops that seemed kind of the same when he was about 4 months old. They were like cecos mixed with normal poops. They came for a couple of days, stopped and then about a week later they came again for a few days. After that, he hasn’t had them again. I don’t think it’s very much to worry about, unless she starts seeming uncomfortable, stops eating or stops producing normal poops. I wouldn’t worry too much; just watch her!

Ohh hers also seem like cecotropes mixed with normal poops. Maybe it is the same case. Thank you! She doesn't look like something is wrong, she eats a lot, drinks and she is active

If they keep getting smaller and harder, then get your bunny to eat more hay. One trick is to give your bunny enough other food to last until around 2 AM. Be sure that there's plenty of hay available. At around 4 AM, a typical rabbit will get desperate and finally start munching on hay.
