Homeopathy for rabbits?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

We got our rabbits about a month ago. They are French Silvers (aka Champaign d'Argent). Two of them have had snuffles, and one can't seem to shake it. I am treating them with Aureomycin. The goal is to raise as much of our own food as we can, to avoid chemicals and growth hormones and .... Anyway, do any of you all have good luck with any particular herbal / homeopathic remedies? What about Australian Tea Tree oil? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you! Happy Trails! - M

Oh you are sooo lucky!!! They are really hard to fidn Rabbits. I use RX Vet,, it is an all natural Oil that has been around for about 100 years..( oppss the recipe not the oil) that you can get from Jeffer`s Vet Supply. Works really well to get rid of sniffles in Rabbits, Chickens,,,well just about any animal. Good luck.

don't know if this will help with rabbits but when my goats got considerably congested we shoved garlic oil capsules down their throats and by the next morning - they were fine

Yes, they are beautiful animals and we were lucky to find some. I got the Vet Rx and she seems better, but its still early. She is definitely eating better and much more playful, so I am much encouraged. I have heard that about garlic, also mint. We'll try those also and let you all know if those help. Thanks so much! -M
