I just got a baby bunny. she is seven weeks old. I found two poops today that were shiny, long, and curvy, and were made of squishy little clumped up balls of poop. Is this something I should be concerned about? Or is this just the poop that she eats to get vitimins out of?

Sounds like a good description of the soft poos that rabbits eat - nice to know a bunny owner is aware of this behaviour!

They don't always eat all of it. As long as she's eating and passing plenty of the little pellets that quickly dry out, she's fine.

My german shepherds eat deer poop - in ordinary terms a ingredient they do. I ought to verify they are wormed each year - yet in any different case - they are unlikely to die from it - do purely no longer watch - that's a very disgusting ingredient, yet they are canines and that they'd tolerate issues like that particularly surely. Their structures are diverse from ours. My vet pronounced that's no longer a nutrition deficiency or something like that - they are purely "cleansing" up the backyard of any data that deer are in fee of that territory. So there you're.... your infant dogs remains a dogs and is having dominance subject concerns - he's doing what he's instinctively equipped to do. combating it could be complicated - in need of going available and spraying the citrus repel spray you purchase at puppy shops... yet which may be particularly a activity and could no longer do something besides. purely forget approximately approximately it and enable him do his ingredient..

yup, those are just little poops that come from the rabbits cecum, and it is perfectly fine and healthy for the bunny to eat them. that is the poop with the vitamins.

Yes, this is the kind she is supposed to eat. I wouldn't worry about a couple of them, but if she continues to not eat them you should call an experienced rabbit vet. She needs to eat them in order for her digestive system to function properly.

Yes, this is completely normal. Its pretty gross, but its necessary to maintain a healthy GI tract and get all her nutrients. I'd be worried if mine stopped doing this.
