Hello, i'm new here..
Since last Saturday (2 May), i noticed that Shiro's poops became bigger (almost triple) and softer (not mushy) and smellier (smells like cecotropes). What possibilities can causes this abnormal poops size?
A day before that, i played with him and he ate alot of pellet while we're playing. He ate more (double or triple) than his usual/daily intake. Can this caused the problem?
I tried to adjust his diet. I stop giving pellet on Monday. But still no change of the poops appearance. I wont dare to stop the hay. I'm afraid the poops become harder and he will constipate.
I have other senior rabbits, squirrels and chipmunks. I'm afraid Shiro might had eaten fruits/oats/sunflower seeds that spilt out from their cages. Shiro is just 3 and a half months old :tears2:
Here's some photo of the poops.. Sorry, i know these might look disgusting, but i hope it can help to solve my bunny's problem:

The poops size is getting more abnormal, this worried me so much :tears2:. We dont have rabbit savvy in this area. I've rang a few vet and asked about this. They said is it something that i do not need to worry. They said, "Dewormed, and the problem solve!"
I hope this is not the sign of 'megacolon' that i've been reading over the internet. Please advice. Thank u. ray:
