Sweetie wrote: My pleasure! Quinine sulfate is the best way to go IMO. It is also the only ich medication I know of that not only kills the parasite in the free swimming stage, but also when attached. Most ich cures will have formalin in them and will likely say dose at 1/2 strength for...

The second pic looks almost like a little piglet my friend once had. They are cute. That's crazy to see how relaxed they look considering they were 'wild' for a year!

Timothy hay is the staple food of adult rabbits. Oxbox explicitly says that timothy hay should comprise 75% or more of their diet. Oxbow also says greens and treats should total 5%. However, I personally give closer to 10%. Vegetables do provide some nutrients but good pellet foods like Bunny...

Oh yeah, and is he/she still eating?

What ingredients are in the meds you dosed? Many common fish medications will kill skin/scaleless/catfish and other delicate fish. This obviously includes plecs and loaches. Also, many common meds from pet stores simply do not work and contain toxic ingredients. Loaches and plecs are some of...

So over the past week I have read up a lot about this poor guy and I am really curious to hear if he is still doing well. Does anybody know? Edit: his full story can be found here: http://www.ntrs.org/haven.htm

I woke up from a nap a few weeks ago and felt something warm on my stomach. She was out cold..er..warm.

"What happens to my pet if I die?" The apprehensions of aging and companion animal ownership: a problem, a solution, and how we are ALL involved. So my degrees and my work have concentrations in gerontology, which is the study of 'old people' (in the most rudimentary terms). A new issue in...

MiniLopHop wrote: Wow...that is moving and it makes sense. How many rabbits were actually abused/neglected versus that the owners simply could no longer provide care? Are there moments in which you feel overwhelmed? How long did you have Indiana Bunns for?

I wasn't sure if this is the best place to post this or not. If I made a mistake please forgive me. I am curious as to what people think the best interval is for generally bunny vet check-ups? I am approaching the 1 year mark since the last vet visit and while everything seems well, I want to...
