Stool can vary in size based on diet and hydration. Ideally, you want to see consistent size, shape and firmness. The size difference you are seeing now may be due to too little fiber in the diet, excess grooming or any degree of dehydration. Offer Mistie as much timothy hay or similar grasses as she will eat. Limit pellets and fruit/vegetables. Always provide fresh water. If she is lethargic or has a decreased appetite, have her examined by your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating rabbits to diagnose illness or injury.
