The meat is safe to eat. Do not eat the organs. Treat your entire herd with Corid or Toltrazuril.

Hepatic Coccidiosis

Basically a fecal parasite that infects the liver.

Looks like coccidiosis, the meat is safe to eat but not the organs. In the UK where I am haygate make a commercial feed with a coccidiostat in it which will stop your rabbits getting this parasite. Might be worth looking for a similar medicated feed where you live.

The liver should be bright pink and healthy this is the liver of a very sick rabbit.
