11 sunshine hoary Harlequin Rabbit, EYE INFECTION?? HELP?
I ended up with 7 baby bunnies!
There be two runts, but they pulled up quickly.
Everyone except Tucker has open their eyes, acctually Tucker opened his a few times, but today he looked ike he was have trouble, and his eyes looked a little bit swollen, so I took a damp warm washcloth, and put it to his eyes, after msot of the gunk be loosend, I gently pushed his eyelid up, and lots of puss and gunk was there, I cleaned it past its sell-by date, then sepperated him from his brothers and sisters.
Tucker is one of the runts, and seems to be slower at learning how to way of walking, opening eyes, ect. He opened a day or two after the others.
I don't know whether I should sepperate him from the others?
Is it an infection?
Help?
What should I do??!
pinch him to a vet
aww how sad bear him vet as he mite be seriously ill my rabbit died on monday. it sound like he will own to be put to sleep if he cant walk properly either.
Answers: give him some human eye drops, and put some terramycin (very little because he's young) in his water (it cures ANYTHING! hold it around!) make sure he's nursing, but it seems close to you've been doing exactly what needs to be done. You can seperate him so long as he get his mother's milk and is kept very warm.
