So, just cleaned out Pickle and Beans litter trays and discovered what I think are worms in Beans poo. Not seen any sign of them before now.
Obviously, I’ll call the vets tomorrow, but had a few questions for RU wisdom to answer.
Having had rabbits for 20 years this is the first time I’ve seen worms. How do they get them?
I’m assuming that as Pickle and Beans switch sides every day and use each other’s litter trays that Pickle will need treating too. I haven’t seen any worms in his poo - trust me I had a good look today!
I’ve never seen any worms in Willow and Herb’s poo (they’re my outside buns), but given that I walk in and out of their run and the house in the same shoes would they need treating to?
Finally, do you think I need to take Pickle with me to the vets too to get checked over, or do you think that the vet would just prescribe the medication without seeing him (and do you think they’d just prescribe for Willow and Herb if they need it?). I can easily take Pickle along too, however as they’re in seperate carriers I don’t want to look like an idiot taking him along too if the vet won’t want to see him!
Thanks RU!
