Athena has been eating her regular poops. They do seem darker and wetter than Apollo’s but they don’t look worrisome.
Her diet is unlimited hay and water, 1 1/2 cup of veggies and 1/2 cup of pellets. She gets more pellets than apollo (he gets 1/4) because she’s had a previous health problem and it’s harder for her to maintain a healthy weight. Generally, I would want to lessen the pellets to fix the problem, but I’m worried to do so. Would it be fine to do or is there something else that I should try?
 
Lucas sometimes eats her regular poos,
(I think it’s out of curiosity, maybe she likes the taste.) 😜

I don’t think it’s anything to worry about.

Rabbits poos differentiate between rabbits, you could ask the organization, where you got Athena, to see if that’s her regular poo. (Just a thought) 🙂
 
Maybe you can try add some probiotic and see if it will have some help with the stomach.

It helped my bunny Lilja when she was alive, I gave her Pro-fibre rabbit. It’s like pellets and you just mix it into the food. I only needed to give one scope and it gave changes.

Otherwise you can drag down the veggies a little and see if the droppings will improve. Because the pellets will help maintain the weight.

Ill order some probiotics and I’ll lessen the veggies too, and see what helps. Thank you 🥰
