Frosted-I tried to search the link but couldn't find it, if you find time can you post it for me?

I put a link to it in the 'links' section at the bottom of the index page a few weeks ago.

A mega dose of Ivermectin just before delivery may be helpful- DO NOT dose a lactating mother!!! DO NOT routinely dose your animals as a way to prevent issues.IT will backfire on you.
The MERCK MANUAL does tell of a way to use rabbits that are carriers for breeding, and get 'clean' offspring from them-- but the medications used must be specific for the carried disease- so BE SURE OF THE DISEASE-- otherwise, you will be developing drug resistant strains of other issues...
