  First, toss all of her poops back into her litter box when she does it so they constantly appear there and disappear from everywhere else.
  Then put a little hay in one corner so she will eat it while she poops at the same time.
  Next, go to the green banner at the top of this page for Bunny Info. and read up on more tips for litter training.
  It takes longer for some bunnies, but if she’s peeing there, you’re halfway home.

  Those are all good tips from Rabbitpam. When I am litter training, I try to clean up my bunny’s cage at least 2 or 3 times a day. I will clean up all of the poops and toss them back in the box. Then I use a hand vacuum to clean up all the stray poops or pieces of hay. Then, if there is any pee, I clean that up with vinegar. In addition, my bunnies actually get all their hay in their litterbox. They usually use one corner to pee in, and then use the rest of the box to select their hay for eating from. This has always worked pretty well for me for getting them litter trained.

  All good tips so far. You’ll definitely want to look into fixing soon (six months is a good age) because that helps a TON with litter training

  Yes, it will. She’s simply saying that wherever there is a poop, she owns. The ‘marking’ will get less and eventually stop. You may still get a stray poop here or there but no large amounts.
