          No idea unless he’s overweight. Has he been weighed by a vet lately? Do you keep track of his weight?

              Had he just ate his food? My bunny Totoro’s stomach sticks out after he’s had a meal.

                Is he eating and pooping? I googled rabbit stomach bloat and it got a lot of serious results, if he’s not eating or seems out of sorts even a little I’d take him in to the vet.

                  According to this-http://www.bio.miami.edu/hare/ileus.html
                  Yellow poop and bloat = GI stasis= intestinal obstruction. I’d take him in right away, just in case.

                    If this is something sudden, then I agree about the concern about bloat. Bloat also can feel more tight. It can be very serious. The information and the questions Sam and Lady’s Human posted are important to know.

                    If you are just stating an observation about how his stomach is generally, every day, then that is something else entirely.

                      Ok so since I have not seen any yellowish poop recently I am going give him lots of hay and cut down on the treats for today and see what happens.

                        Is he pooping or eating? If he isn’t doing one or both, that would be concern to call to the vet.
