Rabbits are my common livestock, and now they are widely raised in many parts of our country, coupled with the fact that some rabbits are cute and very popular, and they are often raised as pets. Hot summer is a test for rabbits. High temperature can cause heatstroke, which can seriously lead to death. If improper breeding causes large-scale heatstroke in rabbits, then farmers will cause huge losses. What about rabbit heatstroke and how to prevent heatstroke? let's take a look at the pro-farm network.

1. Causes and symptoms of heatstroke

The suitable temperature for rabbit growth is 15-25 degrees, high temperature in summer, generally over 30 degrees, rabbits are not heat-resistant, so it may be caused by high temperature, and it may also be related to rabbit house, rabbit tongue is high-temperature and humid, ventilation is not good, cage small breeding density is high, which is not conducive to heat dissipation, so it can lead to heatstroke. Heatstroke is caused by congestion and redness in the rabbit's mouth, nose and eyes, elevated body temperature, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, and stop eating, so how to find these symptoms when the rabbit is found in high temperature, should be dealt with in time, do not persist for a long time heatstroke may cause the rabbit to be me.

2. What to do after heatstroke

After finding heatstroke, immediately place the heatstroke rabbit in a cool and ventilated place, apply it to the head after soaking in cold water with towels or gauze, and feed some salt water at the same time to cool down. Treat heatstroke in the same way as we do. Feed some Huoxiang Zhengqi water, but pay attention to the amount of food. Adult rabbits can take 1-2 grams each time. Small rabbits should be reduced as appropriate, but be careful not to feed pregnant female rabbits. Wind oil essence can also be used to drop on the nose, head and chest of a heatstroke rabbit. Anyway, it is necessary to lower its body temperature. There are many folk remedies for treatment, all of which are fruits or herbs that can clear heat and relieve summer heat, such as houttuynia, watermelon, pineapple and so on.

3. Preventive measures

If it is open-air farming, we should pay attention to shading and avoiding the sun, avoid sunlight, indoor breeding should strengthen ventilation, speed up air flow, breeding is not too dense, so as not to collect too much heat, which is not conducive to heat dissipation. In addition, drinking water feed should also be noted that high-temperature rabbits in summer will greatly increase drinking water, so drinking water should be adequate, and some salt can be added appropriately to cool down. Drinking water feed must pay attention to freshness, do not accumulate fever and mildew. In breeding, the temperature can be cooled by air conditioning and fan lights, but we should be careful not to blow directly on the rabbit, but also cut off the whole body hair of the rabbit, so that it can not only collect rabbit hair, but also dissipate heat.

The above is the introduction of rabbit breeding heatstroke brought by pro-farm network for you. The editor also brings you its symptoms, so that you can better judge whether the rabbit has heatstroke or not, and also brings preventive measures to reduce the possibility of rabbit heatstroke. I hope it can help you.
