Big rabbit farmers talk about the experience of zero death in caged rabbits

1. Heat dissipation and temperature control. Rex rabbit sweat gland is very underdeveloped, the coat is dense and very afraid of heat. Every summer, loss of appetite, disease resistance, fecundity decline, easily lead to heatstroke or even death. To plant some vines such as melons, grapes and pumpkins around the rabbit house to prevent direct sunlight, you can also apply a layer of lime mortar on the outer wall of the rabbit house to prevent the sun from shining directly on the rabbit cage; open doors and windows should also be set up in the open rabbit house to let the air flow. 2. Skillfully adjust the feed. In terms of feed structure, we should feed more green succulent feed in summer, and appropriately increase the concentrate rich in protein, so as to reduce the feed with higher energy as much as possible. In order to prevent diarrhea, it is also necessary to feed some high-quality green hay and provide sufficient clean cold water (preferably 1%-2% salt to supplement salt) to allow it to eat and drink freely; in the way of feeding, due to the hot summer, most Rex rabbits lie still during the day, feeding and activities are concentrated at night, and should be "breakfast, lunch but less fine, dinner full, more grass at night" to increase its food intake and promote growth and development. 3. Stop mating. In the middle of summer, the semen quality of male rabbits is low, and the estrus of female rabbits is abnormal. During this period, infertility is easy to occur. Even with breeding, the newborn rabbits are in poor condition and sickly, and the survival rate is low. Insist on stopping mating and breeding in the midsummer period from mid-June to mid-August, so that male and female rabbits have a good rest and reduce physical exertion, which is very beneficial to autumn matching. 4. Concentrate feeding the young rabbits. It is very difficult to raise young rabbits in summer. It is necessary to eat colostrum as soon as possible after birth and adjust the litter size in time. Generally, it is appropriate to take 6-8 litters per litter. After eating, the rabbits should be given 0.5% licorice water in time. Add 10 grams of brown sugar, 10 grams of glucose, 0.5 grams of compound dimethrin and 0.5 grams of trimethoprim twice a day, 5 milliliters per litre. Pay attention to cooling and mosquito prevention, prevent natural enemies such as dogs and cats from injury, and keep the mat grass clean and dry. 5. Strictly guard against epidemic diseases. Hot and humid in summer, Rex rabbits are prone to intestinal infectious diseases and coccidiosis. Before entering the ambush, some chopped plantain, dandelion, spring onions and garlic can be added to the feed. Each rabbit is given 2 tablets of Dianjing and chlorophenylguanidine every day for two weeks, stop feeding for a week, and double the amount of treatment. can effectively prevent intestinal infectious diseases and coccidiosis; with children an, terramycin powder and Rendan, mix to feed rabbits, often feed some mung bean sugar soup, Huoxiang water, etc., can prevent heatstroke. -- good post, thank you! Breakfast is breakfast, lunch is fine but less, dinner is full, and feed more grass at night
