Yeah, it is! Cylap usually given two weeks after myxo but if there is a high risk, can vaccinate earlier but have to give a second vacc one month after 1st. But with Lapinject, can give one vacc at 5 weeks and works quicker to develop antibodies!

I know which one Im going to use! Shame I didnt know this before I vaccinated my two!!

Babies are doing well tho, was abit concerned with mucoid enteritis but gave metacam and metoclopramide and seemed to help!!

I might be wrong about this but I thought VHD was licensed from either 8 or 10 weeks not earlier, with myxo given from 6 weeks. I'd also be careful about assuming blood in urine as rabbit pee can be red normally - always double check with a dipstick. Certainly VHD is fatal quickly with not many apparent symptoms, often with bunnies just having blood in nostrils or out backend.
