  my bunny has been pooping really small dry ones and long or egg shaped ones so im confused what she has.i read before that if poops get smaller and smaller,its a sign of GI.also,if the poops are big and deformed,its coccidia. could she have both or am i just paranoid?

  Are you speaking of the micro bunny? or your other bunny?
  
  Has your rabbit ever had a fecal examined for coccidia or anything else?

  it is the micro bunny.i had her checked(he’s a she after all) and the vet said she’s just really malnourished.im gonna go back next week for a fecal test.but is it possible that she has both?she’s eating normally-a lot actually and i hope that helps her get fatter.

  It is possible – I think a change in her diet is also causing the fecal pellets to be malformed as well. I’m glad you got her to the vet and will have the fecal done as well.

  Mention to the vet that you have a second rabbit in case it is something that could be passed on easily.
