Last Saturday I brought the bunnies down to my home town. Sofia did pretty well with the drive but Erik was stressed. Well, I drove back today. Erik was acting oddly yesterday- just kind of sitting there and acting very distant. Didn't seem to be in pain but wasn't quite himself. He was still fairly active, bright-eyed, and cheery, however. Just not quite as lively as usual.
Well, today I found excess cecotrophs in their litterpan. I'm pretty sure they came from Mr. Erik's bottom. Granted I gave them a apples, banana, and some carrot yesterday...probably he ate too much banana...He also rejected from craisins earlier which he never does, but we had just gotten home. So after getting them home, I put about half a bag of his favorite timothy-with-herbs hay in his cage and kept him isolated. He produced a few poos, smaller than usual. But he did drop a few. I will give him a little simethecone later tonight, don't think I need to do it yet.
Right now he's running around. He is going to be generally isolated but I figured the exercise is also good to get things going. I didn't feel a hairball in his tum. I've closed off his cage and given them a separate litterpan for when he isn't in isolation.
Ooh, he just hopped to be for some love. He wasn't doing that. I think I'm just being overly concerned. If it's too much of a problem I will bring him to either LSU or Dr. Rich. Not sure the car ride will help much though....
He can't be that sick....I think he just binkied.....I just think his tummy wasn't feeling the best...
