Ok, so I want to mention my bunny Baizel is molting, encase that has anything to do with this.
I noticed today a line of around 5 turds that were all connected together with what looked like hair/fur. Could this be because of him eating/licking/cleaning his fur? If so, is this harmful? normal?


 
Yes, it's from grooming and ingesting hair. One of the reasons hay is so important in their diet is that it helps push thru the hair without it causing a blockage.
 
Some call it the "String of Pearls". It's a good thing to see in that it means the fur he has ingested is exiting through the digestive tract.
 
Give hay and papaya tablets! The hair can cause a blockage in the intestine. Make sure if your notice anything out of the norm take to a vet asap
