Ailments and diseases

When we started keeping rabbits we had no idea of the illnesses that could befall our rabbits. Also as we were new we did not know who to turn to or what was wrong.

After many heartbreaks and many trips to the vet along with very pricey vet bills we actually were non the wiser.

Talking to the people in the fancy yielded many many different things that it could be or could not be.

Therefore we decided to research all the ailments ourselves and find out what was what so to speak.

One of the main problems that we seemed to get was bloat during the weaning stages of our kits.

It is 20 months and lots of research as well as many more heartbreaks that we think we are getting closer to the answer. The following pages are devoted to rabbits digestive system ailments that have unfortunately resulted in some of our greatest losses. We hope therefore that you will find this useful to you and prevent ailments that we came up against. Also that you can recognise quickly.
