Is it safe to treat ear mites with Selamectin (Revolution) or Ivermectin in rabbits intended for meat or breeding? If so, what is the withdrawl time before eating or breeding them?
 
I use Ivermectin [Ivomec], I wait 3-4wks before eating them, but if they are near dinner size, I'd skip drugging them and just use oil. Used it on my breeding stock, no issues, but best to avoid any pregnant or soon to be pregnant does.
 
Ivermectin can be used after the first two weeks of pregnancy. I would also wait to treat if you are planning to breed within two weeks of the treatment date.
