Probiotics for Rabbits?

[Beapig]

I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with probiotics designed for rabbits? Since his dental last Tuesday, Hammy has been getting bloated after he eats. It does pass, but I can see that he is uncomfortable. As he is an old boy, I think maybe going under anaesthetic has stressed his system.

I'm looking at Protexin Bio-Lapis on Amazon, the reviews seem good. Or Vertark Pro-C. I would be interested to know if anyone has used any different brands with success. Thank you in advance

P.s. I'm looking at the powder form rather than the pellets, as I feel this would go down better with his bloat.

Tried them all [emoji38]

I found the pellet one worked the best for Atticus, but it really depends ofc. The ones we're using atm are a different brand though I'll check what it's called

Thank you Graciee! After reading lots of reviews, I decided to buy the Protexin Fibreplex. Hammy likes to eat from the syringe and it is carrot flavour, so fingers crossed he will approve

Oh I've used that stuff when mine are getting over stasis! It's good I think, but I've never used it long term, like a week tops

Mine have all liked it though

Do you know if there are any which are okay to use long term as a preventative? The Vetark Pro-C one seems to have good reviews too. Maybe it is unnecessary to give daily, but I'm just trying to cover all basis

I'm not sure tbh, it's just extra fibre mainly which is the benefit, but I'm wondering if one of the pellets would help or fibrefirst if he'll eat them. I find the pellet work really well because putting the power in the water was hard to work out what he got plus he shares and I don't think it's very healthy.. Basically I found it wasteful and hard to gauge whereas I give him literally 10 small pellets a day and know what he's getting.

Do you think the pellets would cause a problem for him?

Thank you! I actually bought these for Hammy a couple of weeks ago, but not sure if pelleted form is right for him at the moment. The girls go crazy for them though, so they must taste good!
