Probably bloat or block. Very common and fatal.

How do you fix it or prevent it

 

[AltonaAcres]

No way to fix it, once they're showing symptoms it's pretty much too late. Prevent it by brushing regularly to prevent the rabbit from ingesting too much fur when they groom themselves. Feed a high fiber diet. Papaya is great. Lots of exercise

Mine I think have the hang of the litter box... we will see when tomorrow comes. I’m still bunny proofing the room.

I have never had much luck litter training adult rabbits, usually my mother does teach their babies where to poop.

You have to get rabbits fixed if you really want them litter-trained. Otherwise they will leave territorial markings.

we got our bunnies! We weren't able to get two does tho, only one. They are both New Zealand Reds but the white one is apparently an albino(?). The doe is white and the buck is brown. We named them Buck and Lilly. Loving my bun-buns!

Mine haven't territorial marked yet. They are doing great with litter training though.

I just got a bunch of free wood to build a large bunny house I’m going to build a roof run off it too so they can go in and out as they please. Probably will take me forever, but I’ll get it done in a month or so.

@Birdie mom The 'albino' one is a REW. A Ruby-eyed-white. Are you keeping them together? Is the male fixed? I wouldn't recommend keeping 2 opposite gender, intact adult rabbits together. You'll get truckloads of babies
