Hi and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach, No, this does not sound normal. Bunnies have two types of feces, their day feces which are round and firm, and the "night feces" which are softer and elongated/ variable shaped. If you are seeing softer feces this means either that Blackberry has diarrhea or that he is not eating his night feces (which he should). In either case he should see a vet.
