Silly 'bunny mummy'!!!
Mama Doe
Hi everyone, I'm sorry I haven't posted on her for ages but my three bunnies have all had bouts of statis one of them has had it over and over again. Very long story short and masses of trips to the vet all is now ok (knocking wood!). I had a very log chat to two different vets and explained their diet, living arrangements and even where I buy their hay etc. After very detailed examination of all three (one needed a dental and is recovering well now thank goodness) the vets can't find out why the statis keeps happening. I'm now keeping a day to day diary in case there's something I've missed but I'm really worrying now and waiting for the next episode!
My question is, as I know the digestive system of a rabbit is similar to a horse and was wondering if the Hilton Herb Gastric X would help at all, what do you think (just a very small amount sprinkled on their pellets which they only have very few of)? From the list of ingredients it seems ok but in the current situation I really don't want to take any risks and make things worse. At the moment they are only on oxbow T pellets and ad-lib hay which is always fresh daily and that's it.
All very strange really as they are all massive hay eaters.
Any advice I'd be very grateful off.
