Rabbit poop

[Jeff 619]

Hello all,

I just noticed one of my leopard's eating rabbit poop! Good,bad?
Thanks

The rabbit doesn't eat anything that is harmful to your tortoise, however, this just increases the risk of the tortoise getting parasites or other 'germs' from the rabbit. I don't like the idea of keeping tortoises in any other animal's enclosure, be it chickens, rabbits, birds, or whatever. I want my tortoise's 'food bowl' (grazing area) to be clean.

Thanks Yvonne

That's what I was thinking. My kids like seeing in the rabbit in the backyard that's why I have allowed it. I will seal up the fence a little bit better.

Also is the same little guy that likes the rocks every now and again.
