Funky poops

[LadyKarli]

Cloud lost her litter of kits. (As you all know.) She has been re-bred & I am sure she took. She is already building a nest & seems so confused at what happened. She seemed bloated a bit for a few days & then had these funky poops. Now she looks much better!?! Normal?!? P.S. the red thing is a candy LOL!

I've never seen bunny poop that looked like that. I'd feed her plenty of grass hay for the next few days to help her system return to normal.

those are placenta, not poo, where are the babies?

Her milk never came in & they all died last week. After she had them she still looked big. I thought she would look slimmer. Then she did this & now looks normal. She always has hay but seems to be only interested in making a nest with it

Take the hay away for a day or 2 and give it back to her, hopefully she can forget about making a nest and being a mom then...but only take away the hay if her poops are back to normal....just an idea...

I don't care if she wants to make nests with the hay. She is probably eating it too. I am just concerned about the poops! Placenta HUH?

Next time she has her litter. Please check to make sure she is feeding the babies. If they have a round belly , Then she has milk and feeding them. If you have another rabbit that is breed at the same time as her. Never take hay away from a rabbit. I had a rabbit that pulled her fur 2 days after she had the babies...She will stop trying to make a nest. It is very normal.

She is not due with her new litter for 3 more weeks. She just lost her first litter last week & I re-bred her right away. I think she has given up on the nest this morning. <br /><br />__________ Sun Mar 11, 2012 7:57 am __________<br /><br />Also it is not the nest making that gave me pause....it was the funky poops!

That is what I thought at first, Jack. But she said that it was a "candy" so NOT placenta....she actually was talking about the misshapen poops...<br /><br />__________ Mon Mar 12, 2012 9:45 am __________<br /><br />

I think Jack thought that piece of candy was a placenta...which I did too until you told us otherwise...

Yeah my kids love the rabbits it was a fruit snack they dropped on the ground while visiting the cage. She has been weird since I got her. This is her last chance to have a nice living litter or out she goes. Will sell her as a pet. Kinda liking those tan rabbits the other lady had. Those are fine looking rabbits!
