Welcome to our friendly forum!

Poops smooshed together is not normal so I would take them for a vet check. If you want to weigh them daily make sure you weigh them around the same time each day ie before or after breakfast/dinner as their weight can fluctuate quite a bit during the day.

Now this depends. Occasionally I will find a few poops smoothed together, very occasionally and definitely not a regular thing. This usually happens when they are all having a mad moment and four of them charging around a hutch at high speed. However it can be indicative of a slight upset in the guts
