The mortality rate of puppies is high, and the main cause of death is poor feeding and management. Therefore, strengthening the scientific feeding and management of puppies is very important for raising the economic benefits of raising rabbits. There are five specific key measures. 1, early feeding colostrum, regular feeding, feeding full milk: 6-10 hours after birth, young rabbits must eat colostrum, encounter female rabbits who are reluctant to nurse, should be artificially forced breastfeeding. The practice is: the female rabbit is fixed in a box or a special feeding box. The breeder grasps the female rabbit's neck in one hand and the other rabbit touches the back of the female rabbit to keep it quiet, and puts the young rabbit next to the female rabbit's nipple. Let the puppies suck the nipple of the female rabbit. After several consecutive times, the female rabbit will automatically breastfeed. After each feeding, you should check whether the rabbit is full or not. The full-blooded puppies have round abdomen with a ruddy complexion and a bright, restful sleep. Under-nourished puppies are small, with skin folds and abdominal cramps. They keep crawling in their nests. If they touch with their hands, puppies will peck upwards, and some will make a roar. Normally, you can feed once a day. If there are fewer calves, feed them once a day, morning and evening. In case of mastitis in mothers with multiple births or females, we must promptly find foster mothers, but it is advisable to have a lactating female rabbit that does not differ by more than three days during childbirth. It is best to use a urine or lotion on a female rabbit to apply it to a puppies so that it will not cause damage to the nursing rabbits on behalf of the female rabbit. 2, to do a good job of insulation and cold work: Female rabbits will pull the wool before delivery to do nest, do not pull the female rabbit, to artificially pull hair. Due to the imperfect development of various organ systems after birth, together with the lack of body hair, occlusion of the ear holes, and eyes closed, the pups were poor in their adaptability to the external environment and disease resistance. Therefore, we must do a good job of confinement work, winter and spring temperature to maintain more than 15 °C, the sleeping period of puppies, nest temperature should not be less than 30 °C. 3. Keep the cage clean: After the puppies begin to eat, they should be transferred from the crate to an ape box or a clam cage. In summer, there should be iron screens around the gaiter box to prevent mosquito bites and rat damage. The floor of the cage should be active. Take out once a week, replace the floor of the spare cage that has been cleaned and sun-disinfected. Clean the cage frequently and keep it dry and clean. Care should be taken to prevent mastitis in nursing mother rabbits. Prenatal and postpartum within two or three days of appropriate reduction in feeding amount of female rabbits to increase the amount of green feed. Postpartum is best fed 3-4 days sulfathiazole, soda tablets, one tablet a day, or injection rhubarb injectable, 2 mg per day. 4, do a good job of early feeding: puppies generally start feeding 16-18 days after birth, a small number of times. In addition to the regular feeding of milk once a day, it is also necessary to regularly feed some tender grass and concentrate feed, and some conditions can feed milk, milk, bean dregs and rice bran, and other drugs such as chlorophenyl hydrazine can be added to supplement concentrates to prevent coccidiosis. . 5, the good puppies wean off: the pups weaning age, should be based on the production of puppies, weight and season and so on. If the pups develop poorly or in the cold season, breastfeeding time may be appropriately extended. Generally weaned at 30-35 days of age. More use of disposable weaning. If there are many rabbits and there is a big difference in size, you can cut off the power and break the weak one. The method of weaning is best to use the method of leaving the mother to keep the environment, feed, and management unchanged, and to avoid the stress response of weaning rabbits.
