Why Is My Rabbit Passing Red Stool?
Red stool can be harmless—red-pigmented foods like red spinach or mustard greens—or a warning of bleeding from gut inflammation, gastritis, or an anal tear. Overfeeding concentrated feed ferments in the cecum, upsets the gut flora, and causes enteritis with bloody diarrhea. Keep the home dry and airy, prevent coccidiosis, use a smooth cage floor, feed vegetables in moderation, give chew toys, control portions (rabbits have no fullness cue), and balance grain, greens, hay, and water.
