Marta Wajngarten pin worms wouldn't just be falling out of your rabbit for you to see unless the rabbits were given a dewormer that stunned the pin worms and caused them to fall out. Even then, they would be encased inside the poop. You would have to break apart the poops to free the pin worms in order to take this pic.
