Good day all,
Chobi is a Lionhead dwarf, 6 mths old. History of broken back 2mths ago ( caused by another vet improper handling but has a miraculous recovery to close to 80% ( able to run but not hop. half to no control of bladder so need to wash her genital and express urine 2 times a day, also has sorehocks and has been applying silverzine cream ever since , cage are with 2 layers of pads for footing support, change everyday) Rabbit is eating and drinking well and very active even in cage. Poops are normal size.
Recently saw white flakes on her head. Went to vet to test for mite and came back negative. Vet has no idea what is it and prescribed us with antibiotics and those anti-mites cream(just in case). White flakes seems to be spreading.
Just want to know if anyone has encountered such problem before? White flakes but with no mites? If so what are the possible cause for it? Could it be dry skin?(read online)
What action will you guys recommand me to take? I saw aloe vera juice, but i also read it was poisonous. Some forum also recommand waterless soup to wash the rabbit.
Any advice will be much appreciated
( btw i live in Singapore, average temperature is around 26-30 ºc)
Thanksss!
