There could be a great many reasons for "runny poo"...parasites that were present before the diet change and are now pathogenic(harmful) or quite possibly, the diet change itself....take the snake to a Vet if you see signs of physical effects such as dehydration...or just go to a Vet anyways

I just switched my BCI over to rabbits too. I'll watch for runny poo... maybe it's just the way rabbits digest.

It shouldn't be the rabbit that made your snake have running poop. I have never seen a rabbit have runny poop as a result of feeding on rabbits, they've all had solid stools.

Get a fecal done on your snake, you will have a better idea of where to go from there

What else do you feed your rabbits?
