I found little white worms in my rabbits litter box. I recently started litter training him and changed his litter box last week. My biggest concern is if worms are inside him. He is acting like his normal self and is still eating and drinking. Also how do I prevent getting worms in his litter box?

The worms you are seeing are most likely coming from Blue's feces which means they are internal intestinal parasites. I would recommend taking a fecal sample in to your vet to be checked. Your rabbit will likely need a course of dewormer to get rid of the parasites.
