Darlene Wimbrow's herbal care for rabbits - I almost always have
domestic rabbits and the preventative care I've used with them I use on the
wild ones as well. My rabbits have never shown signs of sickness, and I have
had great success with wild rabbits (except when I break down and use
antibiotics). The preventatives are:
COMFREY, contains amino acids which are the building blocks of protein,
plus the curative substance allantoin. Comfrey fed on a regular basis combats
protein deficiencies which lead to many rabbit problems. Comfrey helps cure
diarrhea.
PLANTAIN prevents diarrhea as does the feeding of dandelions.
SASSAFRAS, put a limb with the bark intact in a bowl of water. once
every two weeks, will prevent digestive upsets and diarrhea in young rabbits
still on formula but able to eat some solids.
