Thank you, that helps a lot. I was actually giving it sub-q (at least I thought). The skin between her shoulder blades was extremely tight and nearly impossible for me to grab enough to feel comfortable injecting. I would guess that I may have grabbed some muscle and unintentionally injected...

I definitely believe the blood vessel thing, it's just strange because I was taught how to give injections by a vet a few years ago and I was not made aware of that. I'm just having a hard time figuring out whether or not that would kill my poor rabbit... thank you for your kind words. She was a...

Sorry for posting on an old topic but I'm kind of desperate. I've been doing searches all morning with little luck. I had a doe with extremely stubborn vent disease... gave her 4 doses of Pen G, one a week, and then waited about a month to see what happened. She still had some pimples down there...

I had a bottle baby once, and I would sometimes carry her around in my pocket. My neighbour saw her and asked me if the mom had died. I said no, it lived with a doe but she didn't have much milk. She then insisted that the baby wasn't getting enough milk because I wasn't keeping her in with mom...

Thank you! Would anyone know how to get a much smaller dosage? I'm awful at math. I want to give it to them as a drench, since it will be harder to make sure that they're getting the full dosage in the drinking water. I only have 10 adult rabbits and 9 babies, so I don't want to mix up a bunch...

I've never used Corid or anything similar, so just want to be sure that I'm doing this properly. It's powder, 20%. It says that I can either add it to their drinking water or give it as a drench. Which would be best? Would it be better to give it as a drench just to be sure that they're getting...

Thank you so much! I'll be treating them tonight. Do you know what section of the store it would be in? I have checked the medication aisle and I didn't see it... though I will try again. Not sure if they would carry it in my area.

Where would I be able to purchase DE? I have heard of this many times but I haven't seen it before. I don't usually dose my rabbits with anything, so not too familiar with measurements... would .1 cc be 1/10 of a cc?

Thanks guys! MissM, I'm actually wanting to give Benadryl to all the bunnies just in case. I haven't used it since a few of my bunnies had a bad reaction (it has been a few years). Going to check out the link and will treat the herd tomorrow. If anyone can let me know if that dosage sounds...

Not sure if this is in the right place... sorry if it's not. One of my bunnies had a case of fur mites a week or so ago. I put oil on the area and her fur is growing back in nicely, but I'm wanting to treat the herd with Ivermectin just in case. One of my rabbits had an allergic reaction to...

Unfortunately, I lost her. Very sad... in 5 years, this is only my second loss of anything older than 6 weeks old. Rest in peace, Kree. Thanks for the info. Where would you usually get raspberry leaves and the other herbs? Are they dried? Also, I would like to treat for coccidia just to rest...

Thanks for the info, everyone. I had some sugar in her water but didn't know about the salt. I'll mix some up. Unfortunately she will not eat anything, so all I can do is give her water and pumpkin. I have syringed her water twice since I posted this... the second time, I found her sleeping with...

I have a doe that just had babies on the 24th. She wasn't eating much before her due date (she did go 2 days over) but after having them, she started eating about 3/4 cup of pellets plus some oats a day. She seemed normal last night but this morning I noticed that she was perched on top of the...

The picture was taken yesterday morning. Today, the bunny's belly is very full. Since injuries start around the "ankle" area, I worry about the stub that would remain rubbing on everything, causing pain and difficulties walking. Thanks for your knowledge. I was hoping that the leg was okay and...

I'm not sure if this is where I should post this. I'm sorry if it's not. Yesterday morning, one of my first-timers had babies. All are okay except one that she chewed some of the back leg on. Through the bone in one place. Totally attached, but it was a little "floppy" yesterday because of the...
