I would like to know anyone who can give advice on disease Lop bunny ears my bunny looks sick, thin, but drink lots of water and eat a lot without gaining their weight.is such a thing as weight loss due to worms in rabbits, it is about two and I think is nice, his poop is dark and smelly and not sweet pellety as expected, do you know a good forfree to advise and information on maintaining healthy.thanks
the dark and soft poo could be his pellets cecum. They look sort of like clusters of grapes. They are supposed to eat these pellets once a day or two (I know it sounds really gross). They really need to do to stay healthy because they contain vitamins in them. It may also be what you eat. Make sure it has unlimited access to timothy hay (not alfalfa) and eats fruit in very small quantities (as treatment). Otherwise, he should eat rabbit pellets with as much high fiber content as you can find. If this does not work, try taking it to a veterinarian. There are many veterinarians who specialize there in rabbits ("exotic"). A good question to ask to see if the vet knows the trick is to ask if rabbits need to fast before surgery. If they say yes, then they do not know shit rabbits. The rabbits can not vomit, so it is not necessary for them to fast before surgery. Good luck!
This is probably what you eat. Digestive problems are extremely serious and rabbits, so you should take him to the vet ASAP.
