AnswerDear Emma,
Your bunny sounds as if she is suffering from cecal dysbiosis, which can have a variety of causes:

You can safely keep her clean with the instructions here:

but you need to get to the root of the problem, which is most often incorrect diet:

or undiagnosed dental problems:

Before you breed her, please read:

I hope this helps.
