That doesn't look like anything to me. Keep an eye on it though and if it starts looking messy and if the inside of their front paws starts to get matted down from wiping excess drainage, then you may have something to be concerned about.

Sometimes we as rabbit owners are more paranoid than we need to be (although there are those on the extreme opposite who neglect their herd).

Clear discharge is usually allergy or dust related. White, thick discharge can be Pasteurella, while Bordatella usually has a yellow or greenish tinge. These last two are usually accompanied by sneezing, matted paws and possibly eye discharge. After loosing my entire herd to Pasteurella, any one of these symptoms gets that rabbit a trip to isolation. White snot is an immediate ticket to freezer camp. Others may feel different, but I have tried to "let's treat them and see if they get better" track....they don't get better with Pasteurella.

Yours sounds like allergy or hay related. I would just watch. If it continues, look and see what you may have changed in the environment lately....cleaners, type of hay, dust in the air, etc.

Ditto! Great advice.
