I recently posted about one of my buns Taylor who went really skinny quickly.Well he is on panacur and has put on 4oz in 5 days making him 2lb 8oz. My vet said to dose Taylor and the other buns for 9 days but does anyone thing that the Taylor who was skinny should be on a longer course i.e. the 28 day course.

Also if anyone with duchies has a general weight for them could you let me no cause i really dont want to feed him up so he is too heavy:D

Caspian was 1.8kg but that was underweight and he needed to be 2kg minimum according to my vets.
 
If it's for worms, he shouldn't need a 28 day course. If it's for suspected E Cuniculi, it should be for at least 28 days - more like 6 weeks.
 
he didnt have an answer for why he suddenly lost weight but is putting it on now so poss could have been worms
 
Sounds that way to me. Unless EC was mentioned, I'm assuming worms. Might be worth checking with the vet though.
 
Just weighed Taylor again and he is down 1oz on yesterday but have only fed him seperately once today instead of twice(had usual feed with the other 2)so think gonna keep feeding him 2 seperate times away from the other 2 until the weekend and see if he puts any on
