Rabbit is a common kind of poultry in our country, which is loved by people because of its lively, lovely and active appearance. Many people raise it as pets. If you want to raise a rabbit well, you need to master breeding skills. How long can the rabbit live? How can you live a long life? Do you understand all these breeding points?

First, how long is the life span?

1. The lifespan of rabbits:

There are many kinds of rabbits, and each lifespan is related to feeding skills, so if rabbits want to live a long life, they need to be managed. In general, the average life span of rabbits is 5-12 years, and the oldest rabbit can live about 19 years. Generally speaking, the life span of small rabbits is shorter than that of large rabbits.

2. Lifespan of some rabbits:

(1) the life span of dwarf rabbits:

The dwarf rabbit is one of the oldest rabbits in the world, with an average lifespan of 8 years, and the longest individual is even 16 years old. The average lifespan of a rabbit is between 7 and 12 years old. However, some varieties can have a lifespan of up to 15 years, while others have a short lifespan of 5 years. In addition, the lifespan of rabbits is different, depending on the food supply, predators, diseases, and the environment they provide.

(2) ear-hanging rabbits

The lifespan of drooping ear rabbits can be up to 5 ~ 12 years, normally about 10 years, and only when it is well managed will it be as long as 12 years.

(3) the factors affecting the lifespan of rabbits:

① one rabbit cage: two rabbits of the same sex together, there is a good chance of chasing and fighting each other, so to be on the safe side, it is best to have a cage for each rabbit.

② feeding: rabbits do not feel full, almost a day to eat, so each feeding, must control the amount, while feeding food must be fresh, if there is a shortage of fruits and vegetables, hay can make up, for example, young rabbits supply alfalfa + grass; adult rabbits unlimited supply of grass, feeding alfalfa twice a week to supplement nutrition.

③ disease: just bought young rabbits, the body immunity is poor, so it is recommended to do a stool test, if there is coccidia, first feed coccidiosis drugs to prevent coccidiosis, coccidiosis can only be prevented but not treated (too late), many young rabbits die of coccidiosis, followed by diarrhea.

④ environment: rabbits like to grow in a clean and dry environment, so clean frequently and keep the living environment ventilated and dry to prevent the occurrence of various diseases. Under normal circumstances, it is recommended that toilets should be cleaned about twice a day, rabbit cages should be cleaned once or twice a week, and food and drinking water should be renewed daily.

⑤ do not frighten: rabbits are very timid, a frightened appetite loss, affecting growth, usually manifested as loss of appetite, do not eat or drink, dispirited, etc., so when raising rabbits, you should choose a quiet and safe place.

⑥ summer temperature drop winter warm: a lot of rabbit hair, generally the most suitable temperature is 15-25 degrees. When the summer temperature exceeds 28 ℃, it is necessary to lower the temperature, it is best to move it indoors, but the air conditioning fan can not be blown directly, the temperature is not too low, pay attention to regular ventilation, ceramic tiles, stainless steel plates and so on can be prepared as its cooling plate. If the temperature is higher than 30 ℃ and you don't cool it down to relieve the heat, then the rabbit can easily get heatstroke. When the winter temperature is below 10 ℃, it is necessary to keep it warm. It is a good choice to put a blanket around the rabbit cage, an old sweater, blanket, or a lovely cotton nest. When the temperature is below 5 ℃, the rabbit will feel very cold. If you haven't done a good job of keeping warm at this time, the rabbit's life is worrying.

⑦ exercise: rabbits eat every day, so let them exercise properly to promote digestion. With or without conditions, let the rabbits out for at least 2 hours a day to play. More exercise can prevent the occurrence of many rabbit diseases.

⑧ molars: rabbits need to grind their teeth all their lives. If your rabbit likes to eat hay, then basically the daily task of grinding teeth is done! You can also buy some other grinding tools to grind its teeth. Rabbits that don't grind their teeth can't survive well, remember.

⑨ bathing: our principle is not to bathe rabbits as much as possible, except for long-haired rabbits. Because the long-haired rabbit is really not very good at taking care of itself.

Second, how can you live a long life?

1. Culture skills:

① living environment is clean.

The rabbit is very timid, suddenly hear the sound on the emergence of "surprise" phenomenon, loss of appetite, is the birth of female rabbits are often disturbed dystocia or refuse to breast-feed the baby rabbits. In addition to exercise and eating, I like to rest and sleep, and wake up as soon as there is any movement.

② temperature

Rabbit hair is very dense, and sweat glands are underdeveloped, so in summer, it is best to move it to a suitable temperature environment, but not in winter, its hair can resist the severe cold, adult rabbits can withstand the temperature below zero, and winter reproduction can be carried out at about 5 ℃.

③ food feeding

In addition to feeding, rabbits like to rest or sleep in cages during the day, but they are extremely active and eat frequently at night, accounting for about 75% of the total diet at night, so rabbits must insist on feeding night grass.

④ living environment

Rabbits like burrowing and burrowing more frequently before breeding. When building rabbit houses, we should pay attention to this point in design and materials. According to this habit, rabbits can use mountains and hills to raise holes in places with good climate.

⑤, one rabbit, one cage.

Adult rabbits will chase each other when they meet, and female rabbits will also bite each other when they are together. Male and female rabbits often live in harmony when they are together, so try not to raise adult male rabbits or adult female rabbits together.

2. Breeding taboos:

The food eaten by ① rabbits is as fresh as possible, and the dirty leaves are best fed after washing.

The food eaten by ② rabbits is generally fresh and light, so it is best not to let rabbits eat food that is too spicy, too hot or too cold.

③ rabbits eat food more frequently, so when feeding artificial feed, it should be considered to avoid wasting feed or rabbits overweight due to eating too much feed. At the same time, we should set time and ration every day and form good habits.

④ rabbits eat only a few kinds of grass, so don't cut back all kinds of flowers and plants by the side of the road to feed them.

If ⑤ changes its feed, it needs to be changed one by one every day, so that the rabbit has a process of adaptation, so as to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.

⑥ rabbit is lively and active, so let the rabbit exercise properly every day to help digestion.
