Mushy poop

[binky]

My doe has very mushy poops but not diarrhea. it smells pretty bad. How can I fix this problem. She is fed a good quality hay and pellets. It's become a problem because it is sticking to her bottom. Help.

It sounds like she is not eating her cecal pellets, which rabbits normally consume straight from their anus. A really fat rabbit may not be able to reach to do so. A really well-nourished rabbit (to the point of excess) may not bother. If you are not familiar with this practice, please read this excellent article.

You could try cutting back on her pellets for a time and giving her plenty of grass hay. Sometimes this helps.
