He has been losing weight, vet says his teeth are fine and he is on metacam and baytril to clear anything up but said he seems fine in himself. I was worried he wouldn't keep warm in this weather so have brought him in, and he won't go back out with the group until spring.
He really is loving being an indoor bunny though, just flopped out on the sofa for the past 2 hours dozing! I want to keep him as an indoor bunny forever!
 
Did the vet mention the possibility of EC? A 28 day course of Panacur for him and the group might be a good idea.

Its a strong possibility, yes. I would mention it to your vet.

You can get Panacur paste for rabbits that is aniseed flavour

or you can get Panacur suspension that is licenced for dogs and cats. It is less palatable but cheaper.

And, yess, you will have to do it every day for 28 days for ALL of the bunnies in the group. You will also need to so a full bleach clean on day 21 and 28 of the course.
