Adjust feed and increase nutrition 15-20 days before mating, nutrition should be added to breeding rabbits. Sooner or later, you can feed more protein-rich feed, such as soybeans, germinated barley, wheat bran, fish meal, silkworm pupa powder and so on. The mixed concentrate should contain 18% crude protein and more than 10% crude fiber, and 1% salt and 2% bone meal or stone powder should be added to provide clean drinking water. For male rabbits with poor physique, 20 cooked soybeans can be supplied every day to increase protein supply and improve semen quality.

Reasonable collocation is best to prevent inbred adult male rabbits from matching with adult female rabbits; male rabbits should rest for one day after 2 days of breeding, and one male rabbit can be fixed with 810 female rabbits; in order to avoid breed degeneration and prevent inbreeding, there is no same pedigree relationship within at least 3 generations, and to prevent premature first mating.

During the accurate period, timely mating female rabbits are irritant ovulatory animals, which need to be stimulated by male rabbits to ovulate, so they should be repeated 8-10 hours after the first mating to increase the conception rate. The best time for mating is 8: 00 in the morning and 5: 00 in the afternoon.

Artificial mating is commonly used to ensure the reproduction of pregnant rabbits by natural mating and artificial auxiliary mating. The natural mating method is to scrub the external genitalia of the estrus female rabbit and the selected male rabbit with warm water, and then put the estrous female rabbit into the cage of the male rabbit, allowing the male rabbit to chase freely. Although some female rabbits are in estrus but do not accept mating, artificial mating can be used. That is, to put the female rabbit into the cage of the male rabbit, first gently press the female rabbit, grasp its neck skin and two ears with the right hand, extend the left hand between its lower abdomen and hind legs, and hold the thumb and index finger on both sides of the female rabbit's genitals, raise the female rabbit's arm, make the female rabbit take the position of head, low tail and high, and accept the mating of the male rabbit. After mating, the female rabbit was suddenly slapped on the hip with his hand, which made his hindquarters nervous and inhaled the semen deeply.

Avoid rain, increase light Rain Water, when the temperature is low in the morning and evening, pay attention to keep the breeding rabbits warm, and avoid getting caught in the rain. During the rabbit breeding period, the artificial light time should be appropriately prolonged and the light intensity should be increased every day to improve the conception rate of female rabbits and the survival rate of offspring rabbits.
