  So I was cleaning my two 8 week old bunnies out today and as you should I checked their poop and pee. Not only did it smell bit I saw runny poop and white stains on the cardboard and maybe sand too . I had a rabbit before that had sand in his pee but he wasn’t a baby. How do I cure these problems with 8 week old bunnies? Thanks

  I would recommend you have a vet check them for coccidia.

  As Sarita says, you should get them a vet-check. Runny poop in vvery young rabbits can quickly become fatal (dehydration), and coccidia is not uncommon in young bunnies. The sand in their pee is normal, they expel calcium in their urine, but since you’ve noticed it like sand, it might be a sign of dehydration, there may be less fluid in the pee and more of the calcium, proportionally.
