The baycox arrived yesterday. Il give him the course then have his bloods tested again in a months time.My vet said she would come here to do them as stress can alter the results.I would have thought liver fluke would have showed up in the last faecal test submitted.I hope that I can update with...

Hello Jane,it was Amber that I thought had thickening of the pylorus.She would always lay with her chest resting on one of the other bunnies,its as if this gave her relief.Her gut sounds were always audible.her respiratory rate was always much faster than any of the others,as if she was...

Hello Jane,yes it does. https://flic.kr/p/RX2Gr9

Bless you Santa & Jane.I know I sound like a stuck record but I really do appreciate you both going to all this work for me,again.I sat up with Oscar last night until one.He was breathing very rapidly,as I watched him I could see little waves of what I can only describe as contractions every now...

Yes your correct on FHB"s book containing the wrong dosage.If memory serves me right it was ten times the recommended dose.My vet is lovely,but shes not an exotics vet,sometimes she has made a minor error on dosage such as the Baycox due to maybe getting her info from an exotics vet.In her...

Thank you very much Jane for finding Maries post and the information on dosage.There was an answer phone message from my vet when I got home,regarding the C&S on Oscars urine,The recording is a bit wonky,so I will get a copy of the report tomorrow.From what I can hear E coli was found but...

Thank you MightyMax,Jane & Santa for very kindly taking the time to answer and post links.I apologise for taking so long to reply.Oscar had one of his intermittent liquid diarrhoea bouts this morning,then decided he would have a run around the house!!!Ive been scrubbing & steam cleaning the...

Thank you for your kindness Zoobec.Oscar seems quite bright considering xxxx

Thank you for the vibes Zoobec & Joey&boo.Thank you Santa & Jacks-Jane for taking the time to answer.In Dec 2015 I thought once again the bunnies had cocci so collected a five day sample which was sent off.The results came back with strongyles,which I thought was very odd.At the same time I sent...

Hello RU,as some of you may know I have continental giant rabbits that have suffered with coccidiosis.Oscar and Amber started to seem off colour in November of last year.I thought the cocci had reared its ugly head so started them on septrin.I didnt have enough to give them the 30 day course so...

Your thread is so intresting.My two are very ill at the moment with very similar symptoms.I've been treating them with herbs and after six weeks we are,hopefully,on the up. I believe the head shaking/scratching is due to pain in the stomach.Thi's is what the cranial osteopath who treats my buns...

How mad,I thought I was the only person who tried things before giving them to my fur babies.Hemlock water dropwort,only grows in watery places.Normal hemlock grows near water but not actually in the water.Hemlock Water dropwort looks very similar to celery.Please dont try this one as its very...

Hello MightyMax,One of the fields that I forage in has cow parsley and hemlock growing side by side.On the other side of the field there is a ditch which has a continuous water flow which has both these plants growing plus Hemlock water Dropwort.I dont pick any cow parsley from here anymore as I...

The article I was reading was from the Veterinary medicine international-Which states M Avium Hominissuis has been found in rabbits. You said it had never been recorded in rabbits in the whole of Europe before.This is why I said I believe its more wide spread than originally thought. I never...

Hello Jane :wave::wave::wave:

M Avium Hominissuis has been found in rabbits-M. avium can infect and cause disease in some domesticated mammals but lesions usually are localized and less severe. It multiplies in tissue for a considerable period and induces sensitivity to tuberculin. Swine, rabbit, and mink are readily...

Hello MightyMax :wave::wave::wave::wave:

Im just wondering if it would be worth asking the lab if they test for, Mycobacteria avium, as this was found to be the cause of Thumpers death.Its excreted when the bunny poos just like cocci and can be just as hard to get rid of.It seems most of these nasties can survive just about anything so...

I put them in the bin inside three dustbin bags.Then start a new one xx

I can vouch for these fly traps,they are absolutely fantastic,I was changing mine once a week in the hot weather because there were flies up to the top.The only down side is the smell,its worse than three week old road kill and was making me gag every time I went within fifteen foot of it :mrgreen:
