Question
rabbit 6 months,has a worms any idea what could help

Answer
Dear Kate,

Different types of worms require different types of medication.  The meds used to treat roundworms won't work against tapeworms, and vice versa.

For this reason, it's important that you bring your bunny (and a stool sample) to a good rabbit vet, whom you can find here:

www.rabbit.org/vets

and have the parasite properly identified.  The proper treatment can then be prescribed.

Hope this helps.
