Misshapen and small rabbit poops?

[BinkyLouie]

I have 13 week old Holland Lops. They frequently don't eat their cecotropes. Is this normal? They have abundant hay and high quality pellets. Their normal poos look good, it's just that they have many uneaten ceco thingys all over the place. Will they get better at eating them as they get older?

I would check this thread out.

Update: This morning I checked his litter box inside his cage and there still seems to be some small poops. I think I only saw two or a few more but I think that’s less than he would poop. He ate all his hay tho in his litter box so that’s great. This morning I also noticed when I took him out he went directly to his litter box. Started eating hay and even peed/pooped. Only concern is whether he’s been drinking water or not. I put a water bowl in there and it’s not too big it’s a good size just so it doesn’t take all of his space in there. Yesterday he did drink water but after that I didn’t see him reach for water like he usually does.. Should I just see if he does drink water today? He’s acting pretty normal so yeah. Lmk

If he's continuing to eat, he'll be drinking. A rabbit will stop eating if they can't or aren't drinking anything, for whatever the cause is.

Alright
