  Hi guys, Olly Rabbit here, when we have visitors I have started to do poops and eat it in front of them, could this be because I am allowed to do what I want in the house and don’t feel threatened by the humans? I used to do this in private in my playpen, or am I saying I am the man bunny and this is my house human?

  Hi Olly Rabbit!
  My thought is that Olly is marking his territory as a result of the new smells and sights. He probably feels the need to reestablish what is his. A weird way to show off, eating your own poops. Silly bunnies!

  It sounds like you are more comfortable around other people. You pooping around them could be you reasserting that it’s your territory. Wick does this as well! Way to have some confidence!!
