I know in general this problem is because of tooth spurs and statis, but I wanted to get more info.
My rabbit Holiday is a 9 month old unspayed female. She started to mark recently and pick fights with her brother (he's neutered). On the same day she started acting up she also started eating less. She'd leave her pellets and veggies to explore the room instead. She was still pooping and acting lively so I just figured she was just more focused on securing her territory. She still eats hay, but not as much, and her poops were normal, but she wasnt making as many. I had a check up with a vet to prep her for her spay soon and he said as far as he could tell she seemed healthy and didn't have tooth spurs, though he couldnt get a great look because she was wiggling. I decide to think nothing of her food issues, but I get home today and there were two or three "double poops" were in her cage along with some hairy ones, and she seems more lethargic
Is this common for unaltered rabbits that complete puberty? Does she just have hair in her system? Is it unsafe to get her spayed in two days? I fed her some veg and extra green hay and I'm now waiting to see what her poops are like.
