Breed Rex rabbit, can use own idle house, carry on small-scale domestication. If it is large-scale breeding, it is necessary to build a scientific and reasonable breeding plant.

1. Construction standards

Rex rabbit breeding plants should stay away from noisy and polluted areas and choose places with high and dry terrain, leeward to the sun, low groundwater level and good drainage.

In order to prevent germs from entering and reduce the occurrence of diseases, disinfection facilities should be provided at the gate of the breeding plant. Before entering the rabbit farm, the managers should go through the disinfection room, the top of the disinfection room is ultraviolet light, the ground is provided with grooves sprinkled with disinfectant, and the managers put on clean overalls and go through comprehensive disinfection before entering the farm. In addition, a large disinfection groove needs to be set up at the gate of the breeding plant, and vehicles entering and leaving should be disinfected.

For large-scale breeding of Rex rabbits, several locations should be set up, such as female rabbit breeding area, baby rabbit production area and commercial rabbit production area, so as to facilitate centralized management.

2. The form of rabbit house

The rabbit house should be built according to the local climate type, and the rabbit house should be equipped with rain protection, wind protection, cold insulation, heat prevention and cooling conditions. At present, the form of rabbit house mainly includes: closed type and open type.

Enclosed rabbit house:

The closed rabbit house has a good effect of cold protection and warmth, but the ventilation effect is poor, so the distance between the rabbit houses should be kept at 8 meters during construction, and trees can be planted in the middle for shade and heat prevention in summer. Multiple rows of wire cages can be set up in the closed rabbit house to facilitate centralized management. Every 12 rabbit cages are set as a group with 3 layers and 4 rows, and each floor is covered with bamboo boards, which can effectively prevent Rex rabbits from mastitis and foot dermatitis. The gap between the bamboo boards is about 1 cm. The distance between the bottom of the cage and the ground is about 20 cm to prevent moisture. The distance between the upper and lower cages is about 10 cm, and plastic plates are placed in the middle to facilitate the cleaning of feces and urine. The size of the rabbit cage is generally 50 cm long, 60 cm wide, 50 cm high at the front and 35 cm high at the back. Closed rabbit house feeding density should not be too large, when the temperature is high, windows should be opened for ventilation, if necessary, exhaust fans should be set up to cool down; if the temperature is low in winter, only the south window should be opened.

Open rabbit house:

The open rabbit house has the advantages of low construction cost, firmness and durability, good ventilation effect, but poor warmth preservation. The rabbit house is generally a double-row cement plate rabbit cage, which is suitable for raising commercial rabbits. The size of the rabbit cage is the same as that of the wire cage.
