When I first got on here my First NZ white Doe Luna had a crazy bot fly thing that was infected. I literally walked out there with my 22 to put her down cause she was so sick. She had killed the critter & it was all infected. I decided to try to help her even though she was & still is the meanest doe I have ever seen. (something her babies do NOT have in common with her.) I put the gun down & got to work. My friend & I wrapped her in a towel & got all the puss out of the bot fly hole. It was a horrible thing to have to do but Luna seemed to know I was trying to help & did not struggle at all. Just laid on her back in the rabbit trance. Then we disinfected the whole area & I gave her antibiotic shots for 5 days. She pulled through & I gave her all summer to heal. I am happy to say she is fully recovered & mean as ever! ( I really don't think it is her nature to be mean. She is afraid & all my rabbits were rescued at some point.) & 2 days ago she successfully bred with my big red buck Liam! She is back in the game & I was seconds from killing her just a few months ago. Happy I gave her a chance
