Vegetable oil in rabbit's ears will promote microbial growth and is a bad idea. Mineral oil is a much better choice. Mineral oil mixed with pyrethrins is what is sold commercially for dogs and cats with ear mites.
I have used three drops of mineral oil and one drop of the commercial stuff in...
Sorry for your loss.
This is an example of a situation where I suspect previous medication could be a factor. Medications alter intestinal flora and fauna. Timid appeared healthy but actually may have been compromised.
I have been thinking that running rabbits on chemical free ground might...
We sure are indoctrinated by the chemical companies. "Better living through chemistry" was their motto.

Speculation based on anecdotes is not factual information.
People buying sick bunnies shouldn't surprise me anymore.
Drug resistance is epidemic. Now there is a fact for you. Don't play guessing games with drugs.
Dance under a full moon and celebrate more new cages with wood under the floor to trap the droppings.
Please discuss your "factual evidence" with trained professionals before you post it as accepted fact.
I really should have waited a couple more posts before I said anything. Someone probably...
Really? You are going to poison all of your rabbits based on this? Absolutely sure that there is no other possible cause of those liver spots?
Wow. Poison the rabbits, condemn and kill the chickens, and dance under a full moon.
