VetRX

I've had some issues. I won't deny that. I thought there was an illness in my barn. I started doing research immediately. I wanted to try a boost all my rabbits immune systems.  I researched herbs (but being early April and having a horrible winter, they weren't readily available) I found a vaccine called BunnyVac. I contacted the company and was told they do not ship to Canada.  Yet.  I hope.  Plan B.  I came across something called VetRX.  It is supposed to be made up of mineral and herbal oils.  You can add it to water for immune booster. You can apply it to ear mites and fur mites, and you can put it under their noses to help them breathe better if congested.  So, I ordered a bottle. It was less than $20. I got the bottle and added drops to all the water bottles and bowls.  Then I realized....it's oil.  It floats on water.  I figured eventually the rabbits would get to it. But I don't think they did. At least in the bottles anyway. It coated the inside of bottles.  I left it, thinking that they may be getting some of it.  Then it started to mildew. Bottles are very hard to clean. The bottle brush can really only reach certain spots, and you can't fit your hand inside.  Some of the bottles even started to strip. And you can't clean it out. I'll keep the VetRX and try it in case I ever have furmites or earmites. But if you try this stuff, DON'T put it in your water bottles! It may be better suited to crocks and dishes. Now I have to buy several new bottles.  

Another lesson learned the hard way.
