With my copy of Rabbiting On I got a little leaflet saying about National Rabbit Week in January. I have been trying to get onto the website they gave www.nationalrabbitweek.co.uk only it doesn't work..... anyone else tried?

AlisonA said:In association with panacur rabbit? Does that mean that panacur is now officially licensed for rabbit use??

the pips contain a tiny tiny amount of cyanide (which in small quantaties the body can eliminate) you have would have to eat kilos of pips for it to have any effect. the pips also have an extremely tough outer skin which is very difficult to digest (most plants have the same so when the fruit is eaten the seed passes out the other end, unharmed with an extra helping of nitrates :wink: )
giving your buns an occasional apple core is not going to effect them.
