Question
Hello, I think my bunny has cecal pellets...they smell and are not round balls but like a bunch of little ones together.
What could I do to help him get back to his normal self...will timothy hay help? (he hasnt had any in 2 weeks)When he was eating it..his pellets were normal
Thanks
Brigette

Answer
Actually cecal pellets are normal (in a certain amount, that is).

Eating timothy hay is always good for rabbits, they should have some sort of hay every day.
