  Hi all…..I’m a new bunny owner. I just brought home my new 9week old lop bunny, Poe.
  He’s all set up in an 24sq ft. Enclosure and he has plenty of fresh Timothy hay ,water and Oxbow young rabbit pellets. I was told by the rescue place that unlimited pellets are fine. She had been feeding him adult pellets and gave me a bag to transition him to the pellets I purchased.
  So a few times I found some orange brown liquid puddles on the floor should I be concerned with this? Is it too much pellets? I hope the pic is viewable!!
  
  Thanks!

  Your picture isn’t working unfortunately.
  
  Are you sure it’s not pee puddles? Bunny pee can be very strange colours at times, and generally, it’s fine.
  
  If he has true diarrhoea, it’s a vet emergency. True diarrhoea would consist of only liquid poops, and no regular round hard poops or cecatropes at all.
  
  Is he eating normally? Can you see regular poops too?
  
  His diet sounds good, but if he stops eating much hay you might want to transition him to limited pellets to encourage hay eating.
