Reasons for depilation and bite of farmed rabbits

1. Rabbits raised in cages with too much density live very crowded. in this limited space, the behavior of rabbits will be reduced a lot, and their life is very monotonous. This rabbit is both boring and bored. Biting hair has become a bad habit for them to get rid of boredom. Reasonable feeding density is one of the main measures to avoid rabbit biting hair.

2. In the group of rabbits with uneven strength, some weak rabbits or pregnant female rabbits are often bitten by other rabbits, and the solution is to put the bullied rabbits into the young rabbits or raise them alone. 3. Body surface parasites some rabbits have parasites such as scale insects on their skin, causing the affected rabbits to bite their own fur. It is suggested that rabbits should take deworming measures in spring and autumn, and the common method is to mix material with ivermectin or drink water. 4. the feed variety of caged rabbits with uneven dietary nutrition is single, lack of green feed for a long time, or improper feed processing methods, unreasonable diet preparation and other reasons, which lead to the lack of some nutrients in rabbits, such as protein, vitamins, minerals, etc., or the imbalance of calcium and phosphorus, especially the lack of sulfur-containing amino acids, will cause hair biting disease in rabbits. It is suggested that the dietary crude protein level of young rabbits should be maintained at 16%-17%; the dietary crude protein level of commercial rabbits should be maintained at 15%-16%; and the dietary crude protein level of female rabbits during lactation should be maintained at 17%-18%. If conditions permit, it is better to add 3% fish meal or silkworm pupa powder to the diet.
