lop bunny with dry skin

Question
I have a 2 year old male lop-mix bunny.  He has really dry skin and have read that lops are prone to mites which will cause them to scratch, creating flaky skin.  Is it true that I can rub a mixture of camphor spirit (in isopropyl alcohol base) and mineral oil to rid this problem.  Can you give me the ratio to mix.  Also, can I put these drops in his ears for mites.

Answer
Hi Kaylene. I would not use camphor on a rabbit. Ivermectin will work well for ear mites and fur and body lice. The following site is excellent for finding most medical info that you will need to know about rabbits. http://homepage.mac.com/mattocks/morfz/rabrefs.html  It's one of the best sites I know about rabbit health.  Pat
