  Lately, bobo has been pooping a little differently, not pattern but likie the size of it, it seems smaller, same color, same feel, but smaller, is this something serious that I have to get checked with a local vet or is this a diet changing thing? Because I have been giving him 1/3 of bananas and some parsley to him lately and less pellets.

  To me, that seems like a lot of banana – he should just have a slice, not a whole third of a banana.

  Cilantro is fine. You will want to give him a variety of greens though.
  
  How is he at eating hay?

  Definitely give a smaller piece of banana. They will fill up on treats first, pellets and greens second, and hay last. But the hay is the best for their digestion so cutting back on the treats, and maybe not too many pellets, will help him to eat more hay and get more regular poops.

  Definetly keep an eye on the poops. If they seem smaller then normal, dryer, make sure the food and water intake is normal. Are cecals being produced? The change in poops is a possible sign that there is something wrong with the GI tract. The bunny digestive system is very delicate so keep an eye on the food and water intake, if it is normal, then you shouldn’t have anything to worry about. If theres a change it might be worth a trip to the vet.

  Well I see normal poops, but sometimes i see those tiny ones for some reason and they feel the same as the normal ones, and I do see like some cecals(they’re the night poops right?).
