I'm about to be new to rabbits.

I'm expecting them this week.

And i'm wondering what emergency supplies/medications you keep on hand in case of.....whatever.

I've been keeping chickens for a while now, so i currently keep Corid, blue wound kote, med-free neosporin, and pure saline solution on hand in case of an emergency for them.

I've read that Corid can be used on rabbits also.

What else?

Any tips or wisdom are appreciated. Thanks!

For rabbits--nothing really. i have ivermectin that i use if they get ear mites, but generally, keeping their cages clean, make sure they have adequate food and water, they are pretty easy keepers.

Same here. I've never had ear mites but have had, on occasion, some kits that developed eye matting. A couple of days with ACV in their water cleared that right up.

I kept Bag Balm for scratches, ACV for immunity booster and for more female offspring and mineral wheels.

is there an alternative for terramycin or oxytetracyline that can be used on rabbits?
