Poops smaller / fewer than usual in rabbits
What this sign can mean and when to act, from House Rabbit Society and RWAF guidance. This is general information, not a diagnosis.
What you noticed is worth a vet's eyes soon. Rabbits are good at hiding when something is wrong, so it's best to have your exotic vet take a look before anything has a chance to progress. Book a routine appointment in the next day or two, and call sooner if anything gets worse.
What it can mean
Smaller or fewer droppings can be associated with a slowing gut (early GI stasis), not eating enough hay, or stress. Poop size and frequency reflect how well the gut is moving, so a consistent change over a day or two is a reason to check in with your exotic vet.
