  Hi! New bunny owner here. Should I be concerned about this poop (see photo!)? A majority is normal, small round poops, but I would say 15-20% of the poops are small round balls with a little “tail.” There are also maybe 5 oval shaped ones. I’ve had the bunny about 2 weeks, and the only change is bedding yesterday. I have not seen this poop prior to today.

  It looks like string or fur sticking out, which isn’t uncommon. Is your rabbit currently molting? Typically they end up ingesting more fur than usual during a molt, leading to fur coming out in poop, such as “string of pearl” poops.
  
  While gross to consider, you can crack open a poop in a tissue or something and it is usually clear if it’s fur, string, or something else.
