Most of them my solution is permanent... cull dead. The longer I raise rabbits the more inclined I am to cull quickly. I've learned that long term it's the best and healthiest thing for my herd.
What might I treat?
Coccidiosis (have done in past) haven't seen a sign of it for probably four years now.
Cuts and wounds: I isolate and watch. Might put a drop of penicillin on it. I keep the area clean. if it's severe and it's the only one who has hurt itself I'd be inclined to cull as I don't do stupid well either.
Ear mites: either oil and ivermectin.. depends on the rabbit and the time of year. repeat offenders get culled. Had one rabbit here had ear mites over and over and over again. She was the ONLY one in my entire herd. She ended up having a daughter out of a litter of eleven that did the same thing. I culled them both out to a breeder who wanted them. Full disclosure on the ear mites issue.. he said he'd treat her twice and if it didn't improve in his watch he'd cull.
Haven't had
fleas.. if I did I'd probably dose the lot with ivermectin.
Flystrike: have attempted twice with rabbits in the past. one expired, the other lived. Both were treated with ivermectin and a thorough washout of the affected area.
heat Stroke: get them cooled down ASAP... water on the ears, and cool water on the legs. Ice cubes held on ear. Then I would cull to a pet home. Would no longer breed.
Everything else is a immune system issue and I would simply cull dead.
I also cull for does with nestbox eye kits, rabbits that randomly go off feed, anything that is a charlie, or that as it matures niggles at me as "not quite right".
What you breed for is what you get. So breed only the VERY best in ALL aspects.
Wool block is best treated by being preventative. Brush out those rabbits and feed hay or papaya.
Cuts and wounds.. again best is preventative.. cages with no wires or cutting edges, no mature or maturing rabbits housed together.
