  What type of paint is it? Water soluble? Latex?
  
  Watch him carefully to make sure he continues to eat and poop. If he stops doing either, I would take him to the vet. If he continues to eat and poop for the next 24 hours, he’ll be ok.

  That doesn’t sound good. He ate the whole tube? I would call your local emergency vet and let them know what happened and ask them as I am sure they have seen their fair share of all the crazy things that animals have digested.

  Here is important information from a previous post with an emergency:
  
  Call the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center
  
  The telephone number is (888) 426-4435. There is a $55 consultation fee for this service.
  
  Be ready with the following information:
  – the species, breed, age, sex, weight and number of animals involved
  – the animal’s symptoms
  – information regarding the exposure, including the agent (if known), the amount of the agent involved and the time elapsed since the time of exposure.
  
  Have the product container/packaging available for reference.
  
  REMEMBER: Bunnies cannot vomit like a cat or dog to get the poison out so it is really, really important to consult a vet ASAP as they have treatments available. Most likely fluids will be administered, depending on what the properties are of the ingested product to flush their system.
  
  Here is another # I do not know if they charge a fee:
  
  National Animal Poison Control
  Center 1-800-548-2423
  
  I would still call the emergency vet today and see what they say, and possibly take your bunny in. How much was consumed? Let them know.
