Question
Our rabbit's droppings have changed colour - they are still hard and there is no blood, smell or mucus - but they have suddenly become much much lighter - i only noticed this today and he did have some more celery than usual the other day - could this be what has caused the problem?

Answer
Dear Hannah,

Rabbit droppings can change in color and texture depending on what the bunny has been eating.  More fiber often means lighter, more fluffy poops.

As long as there are plenty of poops, no mucus, and bunny is eating well, drinking well and acting normal, I would not worry about this.

Take care,
Dana
