    Encephalitozoon cuniculi

    Does this sound like Encephalitozoon cuniculi? Recently I lost a whole litter of rabbits and it was clear the doe was ill she lost a lot of weight and wasn't doing too good. This has been the second time she has lost her babies. They didn't all die at once, it was one dying per day until there...

    Suspected Hepatic Coccidiosis

    That is the calculations I got but 22ml seemed like a lot for one liter bearing in mind that is a bird dose and normally the dose is much higher for rabbits. I have some good news... the coccidia looks like its clearing up so I may not need to give them any megacox and they are seeing the vet...

    Suspected Hepatic Coccidiosis

    So its going to be two weeks until I can get some of my rabbits examined by a vet. I suspect they have liver coccidiosis. I previously treated them with Easycox which did nothing. EasyCox only treats intestinal coccidosis, it doesn't cover the other type. I have a bottle of MegaCox which will...

    Rabbits still feeding from there mother 3 months on

    Its remarkable that the mama bunny can still produce milk. The only thing I was worried about is there being an underlying health issue so if its normal then I'm happy.

    Coccidiosis, trying to help a friend

    Does any body know the dose for megacox? Apple cider vinegar doesn't really do anything for Coccidiosis. I remember trying to save some birds that had coccidiosis and apple cider vinegar did nothing. I had to use an antibiotic powder in the end which did the trick.

    Bad Hay

    I also wonder if any chemicals or pesticides are sprayed in the fields where the hay grows? Maybe some stores and other places are buying cheap hay to sell on for profit that isn't fit for animal consumption... its a possibility. With the current state of things happening today with prices...

    Bad Hay

    Sometimes the smell test isn't always reliable, bad hay can still smell good, then there is smelling the differences between a bad and a good bale especially when there are no good bales to compare the smell test unless its very bad in which case most wouldn't touch it who are experienced. A...

    Bad Hay

    So it happened a second time... I found a new hay supplier and the first bale I bought was perfect and of very good quality. My rabbits really enjoyed it. I was starting to run low on hay so I bought another bale except I noticed something a little off about this bale. The bale looked musky and...

    Coccidiosis, trying to help a friend

    I have thought about contacting the company, other bags would have also been contaminated out there but its a question of whether those who bought the other contaminated bags of hay realize what killed there rabbit and how many people have contacted the company about this? I have a feeling I...

    I cooked and tasted my first rabbit

    It looks tasty. I don't have what it takes to butcher a bunny but I would eat it.

    Please help identify the disease

    Ivermectin works very well for treating mange in rabbits and will also deal with some types of mites and other parasites. Ivermectin is commonly used more for treating various parasite issues in birds but will also work for rabbits. Diatomaceous Earth is also very good at killing parasites...

    Coccidiosis, trying to help a friend

    I know people are trying to help, it can be difficult losing animals that I'm doing everything I can to save, I was just trying to explain. I don't think I could cut open one of the dead rabbits, there is just something about it... I can cut up meat and that sort of thing but when it comes to...

    Coccidiosis, trying to help a friend

    There surroundings are clean. I know it sounds unbelievable that it was contaminated hay bought from discount store. I also inspected the hay and I found dry mold in it. I don't care if nobody believes me but this is what has happened. An autopsy would cost hundreds. The problem has been...

    Coccidiosis, trying to help a friend

    The 3 rabbits that have become critical I managed to get one eating, I've also made a discovery that this may not be Coccidiosis... My friend had bought some packaged hay from a discount store which looked a bit dark in color, there is a small possibility that its contaminated and has poisoned...
