Hey guys...
I have a whole passel of buns with what I believe to be snuffles (Pasteurellosis). They are all bouncy and happy still, and eat and drink like crazy (no more than normal, but). They have most of the symptoms, dirty paws, etc. But, they don't have any nasal discharge or anything. They DO have very crackly lungs though :barnie

I am currently treating them with VetRX
(https://www.amazon.com/Vetrx-Rabbit...?ie=UTF8&qid=1499172171&sr=8-2&keywords=vetrx)

And also with ACV and lots of garlic. Everything else about them is perfectly normal, and I am wondering if I maybe caught it on time? :fl

One more observation: The feeder I used for them before was VERY dusty, and that's when I noticed just sneezing, which later developed into the crackly lungs.
I'm just REALLY paranoid because my favorite buck just died with the same Illness I believe. I also have these guys separated from the rest of the herd....

I'm trying to avoid the vet because A. Our Vet sucks and B. I don't have money for that.. (maybe when I marry that millionaire.. )
I have no qualms about being told to cull them, but I'd rather not :hit

Anyway, thank you for any help you may give! (Diagnosis, treatment ideas, etc)

If it's on their paws from wiping then they do have some nasal discharge. It's just not draining enough that you see it dripping.

Make sure to use proper isolation when treating and handling your sick rabbits. Gloves, clothes and shoes should be changed. I'd recommend taking care of your other rabbits first then take care of your sick ones. Then change your clothes.
When I had rabbits for show if they got snuffles it was a automatic cull. So I can't help with treatment. Good luck and I hope your rabbits get better.
