My bunny who is 3 months old has diarrhea?
She just turned 3 months this month. I feed her unlimited timothy hay & oxbow pellets. I have cut down feeding her pellets because I've noticed they gave her a lot of soft stools that would bunch up together so I only give her a little a day and it seemed to help.
Today after i fed her some pellets she hopped away & left behind a strand of wet poop, not the little circle-shaped cecotropes so I kinda panicked. I then lifted her & found 3 little
cecotropes stuck to her bum. Btw she had a lot the dry normal poop in her pen today so that was a good sign. She isn't showing any lethargy as she is hopping around & begging for pets. She is also continually eating lots of her hay & water.
The only new thing I gave her in her diet starting last week was one papaya tablet because I noticed she had some hair in her poop & it helped and since she is young I only planned to give it to her at least twice a month.
And also Oxbow Digestive Support tabs. It was suggested on the box to give 1/2 a day for 0-1lb so that is what I did & for a few days I noticed it did help with her soft stool poops but now I am thinking that maybe 1/2 a day is too much?
I am keeping watch on her & making her drink lots of water.
Can anyone tell me any opinions or suggestions to help me out
