>>I'm guessing he's going to be growing fast for a while? When should he be full sized?

Since Flopsy is a mini-lop, he'll be fullgrown about 6-8 months of age.

>>Some of his poops seem to be a bit larger too. Is that normal?

Large, round poops are normal and means he's eating well and healthy.

>>What else can I do to encourage him to not go potty in his food?

Get a smaller food bowl that he can't hang out in. And also, get one that hooks on to the cage so he can't pee into it. A large bird cage feeder will do the trick.

>>He also digs in his food. Any idea why he does that?

LOL! When my rabbit Gypsy was young she LOVED to dig in her food *and* water bowl. They do it just to do it. Young rabbits are such characters and are much like kids - never have a reason for doing anything.
