Rex rabbit

Answer: the quality of rabbit skin will directly affect the economic benefits. In order to obtain high quality Rex rabbit skin, we must not only have excellent breeding rabbits and scientific breeding, but also understand the hair changing law of Rex rabbits and calculate the accurate skin extraction time. The hair changing of Rex rabbits can be divided into two types: age changing and seasonal changing.

Age sexual hair changing: the time of 30-150 days after the birth of sex is the first age sexual hair changing period. After the first age sexual hair change, the skin is the most economical. The second age sexual hair change was mostly in the period of 170-240 days old. If the first age sexual hair change is in spring or autumn, it is often necessary to start the second age sex hair change immediately.

Seasonal hair changing: it refers to the hair changing of adult rabbits in spring and autumn. The hair change is generally from the beginning of March to the end of April in spring and from the beginning of September to the end of November in autumn.

Rex rabbit skin extraction time must grasp the right age and timing.

1. Appropriate age: the skin should be slaughtered after the end of the first age change and before the second age change, that is, 5-6 months old, when the body weight reaches 2.5-3 kg. From the point of view of fur maturity, it is better to slaughter and remove the skin after the second age sexual hair change, but it should be kept for more than two months, which will increase the cost of feeding and management.

2. Timely: skin removal refers to the skin removal time of adult rabbits, old rabbits and knockout rabbits, which should be selected at the end of winter and the beginning of spring, that is, from the end of November to March of the second year. Because the bottom of the leather taken during this period of time is thick, does not take off, and the leather plate is of good quality.

Rex rabbits are raised on a small scale in rural areas and peeled by hand. The method is as follows: first, the hindlimb of the slaughtered Rex rabbit is hung up and fixed on the column with a rope, and the skin ring is cut around the neck, the joint of the hind limb and the curved joint of the forelimb with a sharp knife, and then the skin is cut open along the inside of the two legs from the upper part of the pubic part. peel the skin from the top of the pubic part, peel off to the neck, peel off the skin with the method of withdrawing the cover, and make it a cylindrical shape with the skin plate facing outward. The peeled skin is cut in a straight line from the middle of the abdomen with scissors and laid flat on the board, with the hair facing inward and the meat facing outward, nailed with small nails, not too tight or too loose, and not exposed to the hot sun to prevent the skin from deteriorating.
