My friend's rabbit who is 1 yr old cannot eat veg, grass, treats, change food etc without getting a runny tummy. I said I know some people who would have some ideas! She lives in a shed with her friend but they cannot go out in their run on the lawn coz of it....

Oh what a dreadful shame. I suppose she must eat loads of hay and pellets so that is good. Could they not put her in a run on concrete so she has no grass to eat or cover underneath with a sheet of plywood then put the run on top pegged down. Does seem such a shame.

How long since last time they tried the bun on grass and different food. At 1 year his digestive system should be calming down. They could try very slowly adding in a little at a time. Selective are doing a vetcare plus food for digestive health which might be an idea to help out. Also herbs such as fennel, dill, mint, and chamomile are often though to have a calming effect on the digestive system so may well be a good place to start with veg feeding.
