Answer

Small, dry rabbit droppings can be a sign of dehydration or a diet lacking in sufficient fiber. Rabbits require a constant supply of hay (at least 80% of their diet) to maintain healthy digestion. Ensure your rabbit has access to fresh water at all times. Monitor their eating habits; if they stop eating or produce no droppings, it can quickly become an emergency. If the issue persists or worsens, a vet visit is recommended to rule out gut stasis or other digestive problems. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
