I've been told it's mainly because the vaccines are made by different companies so they aren't licensed to be given together, so the 2 week gap is simply for licensing reasons.

Also obviously the immune system starts working once a vaccine is given so 2 in a short space of time may overload an already weakened system, but should be absolutely fine for a healthy bunny. But hey, babies get given multiple vaccines all at once so it can't be that dangerous :wink:


How is Frau Helga, have her and Panda settled in ok overnight, and the other lovely 2 as well (sorry I can picture them but can't remember their names, isn't it terrible)

are they really thats interesting!
 
yes. i think it might be in the US (BUT dont quote me!).

just think us lucky that we are not in Austrialia as i understand that they dont allow Mixi jabs due to the problems with buns over there.
 
My vet said 7-14 days is that wrong then should i wait the 14? i was going to take quinn this weekend to get the VHD as he had his myxi one last weekend, should i wait another week?

We agreed 2 give the myxi one first because of foxes etc that live basically at the back of our garden so theres a possibility of wild rabbits

yep 14 days i what is recommended!
 
i asked my vet last month why the vaccs were given with a 2 to 3 week gap and she told me it was in case the bun had a bad reaction to one of them . if they were given together they wouldnt know which one had caused the reaction,
