In the process of raising rabbits, if farmers can do the following "three desires and three nots" when feeding rabbits, they can make rabbits grow strong and get less disease, so as to improve the economic benefits of raising rabbits.

To feed formula feed should be reasonable, do not feed a single variety. The nutrients in the rabbit diet are as follows: 10% of crude protein, 10% of crude fiber, 5% of fat, 2800 calories of digestible energy and 10% of amino acids per kilogram. If feeding formula feed unconditionally, soybeans, bean cakes, wheat bran, corn and other succulent feeds such as carrots should be added appropriately.

To re-feed the night feed rabbit has a strong night feeding habit, and the night food intake can account for more than 75% of the whole day's food intake. Therefore, rabbits should be provided with sufficient feed and drinking water at night.

To slowly change and often feed a kind of feed, rabbits already have a strong ability to adapt. If the feed is changed suddenly, it is easy to cause gastrointestinal diseases in rabbits. Therefore, the feed should be changed step by step.

Do not feed silage with high acidity, which will affect the growth and reproduction of microorganisms in the cecum of rabbits.

There are many microorganisms that can secrete fibrase in the cecum of forage rabbit, which has a strong ability to decompose crude fiber. However, the retention time of feed into the gastrointestinal tract of rabbits is relatively short, so feed forage should not be interrupted to prevent food pellets from hardening and blocking the cecum. Adult rabbits need to be fed 0.5 kilogram of forage every day.

Do not overfeed rabbits should be fed regularly, adult rabbits 4 times a day, young rabbits 4-6 times a day, 70% to 80% full each time, do not feed too often or too full, in order to prevent rabbit diarrhea and abdominal distension.
