          It looks normal to me however is she sneezing or having trouble breathing? That would make it more of a concern.

            Has it dried up by now or gotten worse?
            You don’t want to have a problem on the weekend if your vet’s office is closed. If you think she’s worse, or is wheezing, sneezing or showing other signs of illness (not eating? not pooping? sitting in a meat loaf position?) then you can call your vet. Many vets have email, so if it’s possible, I would just shoot your vet this photo and ask if she thinks you should bring your bunny in. Sarita usually is right about these things, and if she thinks it looks normal, it probably is.

              Ok, let me start from the beggining.

              My bunny has been sneezing a lot since i brought her home.
              I took her to multiple vets, trying to find a solution.
              We even did x-rays to her, but couldnt find anything.

              She underwent 3 therapies, since we couldnt get rid of it.

              1) sivotine antibiotic + exocin drops
              2)bactrimel syrop + tobradex drops
              3) briklin injections + tobradex drops

              The 3rd therapy is the one that seemed to work, since we got rid of the mucus, but sneezing continued as normal.
              Since the bunny was freaking out every time, i decided to stop any therapy for about a month, but now it looks like the mucus is coming back(photo).

              Any help?
              Thanks

                Did your vet do a culture of the mucous? That is my suggestion. If you find out what bacteria is causing it, the vet can prescribe the best antibiotic for that particular bacteria.
