Oxbow Critical Care for herbivores

Product Information

There are a number of species-specific foods available, however, the main ones include those made by Burgess, Oxbow, Lafeber and Supreme. A suggested daily ration of 3 tablespoons per kg of body weight per day (small herbivorous mammal) or 1 tablespoon per kg of body weight per day (small herbivorous reptile) is generally appropriate for an animal that is also eating additional foods. Their main thermoregulatory mechanism is by heat exchange in the large arteriovenous anastomotic system in the ears. You can hand feed rabbits quite well – once they have started to eat, you can hold up the next sprig, so it goes in like a never-ending piece of spaghetti.

Herbivorous turtles can be given 2 to 3 ml of dissolved Critical Care per kg of body weight twice daily.It is important to converse with the leading clinician regarding the medical treatment plan and its potential implications for the patient. As discussed, rabbits require a source of low-quality roughage, as well as a handful of non-selective pellets, and some fruit/vegetables in small amounts. Mitigating these factors, either by stress reduction or the use of medications, is essential to facilitate the patient's health.
