You will need a larger bore needle if injecting bicillin as it is very thick and will either plug up the needle or blow it off when you start to push. Off the top of y head I think the smallest we've used for that is 23 1/4? Sorry if this isn't right I know the color of the package mroe than...

Pen G procaine 20,000-60,000 IU/kg, mean dosage is 40,000 I'd call your vet to confirm. Make sure you know what it is you are giving and the weight and then you can do the calculations from there.

shouldn't that be 0.2 cc? Even some of my biggest ones only get .5cc and the smallest .15cc. If it is Pen G with B it should be roughly 42,000-84,000 IU/kg. I have the dosage I use at home so this is a guesstimate. Also - a side effect is diarrhea.

Many of the onesI have with molar spurs eat nromaly until one day, they just stop or I wake up and they are soaked in drool. It happens that fast. Others don't even drool....I just know every few months they have to go in or otehrs have a change in their poops as an indicator. Each bunny is...

Generally rabbits drool due to teeth issues, specifically molar spurs. He should see a rabbit savvy vet beofre it progresses to stasis....the vet should know how to view the molars without having to put him under(unless they are inexperienced)....they are tricky to view properly

Well it sounds like you have thought about it alot which is good. Two things I'd do to get started....1) go to Petfinder.com and start upa website....you can put a plea for foster homes, donations of food,vet bills and adoptive animals onto it. You can also getvolunteers that way as well. 2)...

If she isn't spayed and you know someone fromthis board willing to help out, why not waive the fee? Theyare going to have to invest in the spay so they could put the $20towards that, no? A fee is a good thing for Joe Blow public but if you know someone here who can help out, that might be a...
