Technical points of raising rabbits in winter and spring

In winter and early spring, due to cold climate, lack of light and lack of green fodder, rabbits often grow slowly and the reproduction rate decreases, resulting in lower efficiency of raising rabbits. Comprehensive feeding and management measures centering on cold prevention and warmth must be taken. 1. Protect against cold and keep warm. ⑴ keeps the temperature of the rabbit house suitable. The most suitable growth temperature for rabbits is 10-25 ℃. In winter and early spring, the indoor airflow should be controlled, the exhaust fan should be turned off, and the rabbit house with doors at both ends should be closed to reduce the passing wind and keep the temperature of the rabbit house above 10 ℃ as far as possible. ⑵ protects against cold wind.
