Erica, I am now in Wyoming. No fire ants here thank the Lord. We had them when we lived in Alabama, and Mississippi. They can kill a full grown cow if they...
Our Holland lop, Stanley, seems to have some problems seeing out of one of his eyes. It is white in the middle where it is usually black and he startles if we...
... Sounds like he might have a cataract. This can be due to one of several parasites or it can be an old age problem. If you have a good vet, you should...
I know that this is way OT for all of my groups, but I've just received a phone call which is a very nasty scam, and I want to warn people about it. The caller...
Hello, Can someone Identify our rabbit for us. You can find his pictures under the album named BUGZIE in the photo section. He is a year old now and his ears...
I'm not 100% sure - he might be a mix but he also looks like a Californian. Probably a lilac Californian? I don't know if there's any in lilac. How old is...
Bugzie is a year old. He is now all white and he has pink eyes also. The people we got him from told us waht breed he was but I cant remember what it was. The...

Michael, Bugzie appears to be a Californian, or at least a Cali-cross. A Cal will generally be 9 to 11 lbs at mature weight. The points (ears, nose & tail)...

Micheal, Was it called Ivermectin, or Ivomec that they used in his ears? It is actually very safe to use, and if his ear drum is not punctured and he didn't...

Micheal, I would tend to doubt that Ivermectin would kill him, as it is given by injection also. However I don't know how much pain it would cause if he had a...
