As the time of artificial breeding of bamboo rats in China is not long, but there are a variety of nests built in various places, we only introduce the construction methods of two kinds of popular species, and the two kinds of nests can be built with cement slabs or bricks respectively.

Feeding accommodation separation type

It is composed of two parts, with a nest on one side. On the other side is the playground and the feeding room. It is suitable for female rats to give birth, or for male and female paired feeding. The size of the chamber is 50 cm * 30 cm, the specification of the feeding room is 50 cm * 40 cm, and there are connecting holes with a diameter of 15 cm at the bottom of the two pools. The bottom of the whole pool is a whole 3 cm thick reinforced cement board, a 10 cm * 2 cm small hole is left at the opening of the hole connected by two chambers, and the bottom of the cement board is padded with bricks about 25 cm from the ground. the purpose of doing so is ventilation and dryness, and it is convenient to automatically leak feces, but pay attention to mosquito prevention in summer.

All-in-one accommodation

1. After years of practice, we have designed this integrated rat fence for feeding and accommodation, which is simple, practical, easy to manage, easy to build and relatively low cost.

2. Its specification is 50 to 60 and is made of five cement slabs. Except for the floor which is 3 cm thick, the other 4 plates are 2.5 cm, and the bottom plate is 25 cm high with red brick.

3. A leak hole is left in the middle of the floor, with a specification of 4cm to 15cm, and a 20 cm length of steel bar is pre-embedded in the cement floor.

4. There are two functions of steel bar. On the one hand, a large leak hole can be divided into two parts to prevent the hole from being too large, and on the other hand, this steel bar can be used for adult bamboo rats to grind their teeth.
