Equa Holistics HealthyGut Probiotics for Rabbits (120)

I started giving this probiotic to my bunny a few weeks ago and the difference has been amazing. It’s super easy to mix into her pellets or greens, and she eats it without hesitation. Her digestion is so much better—firmer, more regular poops, and no more soft or messy spots. I even noticed she seems more energetic and comfortable. I love that it’s made specifically for rabbits, so I know it’s safe. Definitely a must-have for any bunny owner!

I have a 6 year old Holland Lop who our vet said probably has an immune deficiency, as he has tested positive for three unusual different bacterial respiratory infections. They're chronic, so we give him two oral antibiotics every day and nebulize another to keep him reasonably healthy and comfortable. We vary the dose and frequency as we and the vet seek the best solutions for him. It's a challenge. He's still a happy boy though, and that's what we are aiming for. Rabbits use bacteria for their digestive system, so having the right bacteria is so important to avoid problems like GI stasis or diarrhea, both of which can kill them. As well as the three bacterial infections he has. So a delicate balancing act between his bacteria, good and bad. HealthyGut probiotics really helps in that endeavor. I've tried another brand but wasn't as happy with the results. We've had another couple of rabbits who passed from old age related issues that have done well too on this. I just want to say that don't just use the recommended amount every day, sometimes it can be a little less, like even a half scoop or less. They can get too much probiotics as well as too little. Judge by the quality of the cecals and your rabbits response. I just sprinkle it on top of his pellets and he seems to like it and will always eat it. For rabbit gut health, I recommend Sherwood (by far the best brand) pellets, and their rabbit vitamins treats. hay, water, and this probiotic. Sherwood explains it on their website. I believe a rabbit's diet should be simple. Avoid greens, carrots, and such as they have too much sugar (lettuce and carrots are best for cartoon and children's books rabbits). I also replace this probiotic as they seem to lose effectiveness over a period of months to a year, so I just get the small size. They really last a while. Our last two rabbits before this one each lived to 11 years, both used this probiotic, and neither died from gut problems. Our current bunny, Gizmo has amazed our vet, who says he shouldn't even be alive at this point, and was cautioning us a while back that Giz probably wasn't going to make it. But he is thriving in his way and doing really well. HealthyGut isn't the only reason, but it's a part of it. I give it to rabbits when they are healthy as well to keep them that way. We wish good health, joy and binkies for your rabbit(s)!

I purchased this purely on a whim, I have two rabbits and as they age I notice they have more and more GI scares. I have been looking for an affordable supplement for years at this point. I'm very glad I found this product, I use it multiple times a week, and my rabbits actually like the taste of this, which is rare for my picky pets. I just sprinkle this over morning pellets, and they eat it no problem. There is a lot of powder in this and will last at minium a year. Very pleased with this supplement. Extra Info: It has minimal smell and most likely your rabbits won't even notice it. A fine, silky soft powder, no chunks or lumps. Noticeable bowel movement improvements.

My rabbit didn’t like

Great product, sorted my old girl out in four days. She is a 10-12 year old meat rabbit we rescued from a farmer who just couldn’t put the pipe to her sweet head. A couple of months ago, she got sick and almost died. Knowing she was elderly, we kept her comfortable and mentally prepared for her passing, but on a whim I put a tsp of colloidal silver in her water bottle. Four days later and she was better. Eating, hopping (she’d started just walking to the little box), twitching her ears and noticing us again. I was thrilled!!! She’s a very sweet bun for loving at least six years of her life in a wire cage with a block of wood to sit on and we want to keep her as long as possible. So, that said, after her antibiotic treatment, she was leaving behind white, foamy stuff. I didn’t know even what end it was from, bc it wasn’t with her other waste. I did some digging bc I assumed she’d need a probiotic after her antibiotics and found this wonderful product. No odor, very easy to use, and she never hesitated to eat it. I used it for a few days until she got a bit of the runs, and now she’s fine, completely normal. She’s slowing down, of course, but she’s not sick and this wonderful stuff is part of the reason why. Thank you!
