Raise the survival rate of puppies and young rabbits related technical measures

The rabbits from birth to weaning are called puppies. During this period, the organ development of the pups is not complete, and the adjustment function is poor, the adaptability is weak, and it is easy to die. Therefore, we must take intensive care, eat good colostrum, use feed and disease prevention, and take effective measures such as weaning to increase the survival rate of puppies.

1, eat colostrum. Colostrum is milk juice that is secreted by female rabbits 1~3 days after childbirth. It is rich in nutrients and contains maternal antibodies and diarrhea. It is good for promoting the growth of pups and improving the survival rate. After puppies are born, such as when puppies are examined. The belly of the abdomen is white and sleeps well. It proves that you have already eaten colostrum. If you find that the puppies are crawling around and crying, and the abdomen dries up, that is, you have not eaten milk, then you have to hold the female rabbit. The rabbit is placed under its abdomen. Generally, the puppies will soon find nipples and eat enough milk. For some individuals who do not eat puppies, they should hold the female rabbit tightly and have their abdomen face up, holding the puppies on their nipples. The puppies will be able to eat milk. The principle of breastfeeding is to let the body be small and weak to eat first, and then let the puppies eat. If several litters of female rabbits bite to bite the fostered puppies at the same time, the female rabbits may lose their ability to discriminate by applying some cool oil or garlic juice to the nose of the foster female rabbits.

2, insulation antifreeze, abnormal death. Because puppies have poor ability to adapt to outside air temperature, they should do well in the winter and spring and late autumn. The indoor temperature should be controlled between 18 and 20 degrees. The litter box should be filled with some hay or other insulation materials. If the female rabbit tears less hair, it can be done manually to pull out some rabbit hair over the puppies, and check it again every 3 to 4 hours to prevent freezing. In addition, it is also necessary to prevent the pups from being sucked out of the farrowing box by the female rabbit or from the pups to puppies in the farrowing box.

3, early feeding or suitable weaning. The puppies were born to sleep for 12 days. In addition to eating, they were sleeping. Twelve days later, the puppies opened their eyes and began to exercise freely. They even jumped to the farrowing box. As the weight increased, the puppies could not meet the light to eat breastmilk and began to find other foods. At this time, they could mix with some small particles and be easily digested. The nutrient-rich material is placed in the production box so that the puppies can eat. After several times, they will take the initiative to feed, and the amount of feed will gradually increase from less to more.

When avoiding growth for about 30 days, the pups are healthy and lively. When the body weight is more than 400 grams, it must be promptly weaned, cut off once and for all, or in batches, depending on the actual situation. Weaned rabbits up to 3 months old were called young rabbits. During this period, young rabbits grew fast and developed, but the disease resistance was poor. Special attention should be paid to strengthening nursing. Some people claimed that the technique of raising young rabbits was too successful. Even if it was possible to raise a rabbit successfully, there is a certain truth in this. From this, it can be seen that the young rabbit is the most difficult stage to raise. Therefore, a good four-fold should be put in keeping young rabbits:

(1) Weaning off. Most of the young rabbits died within 4 weeks of weaning. The main reason is the impact of stress, from the pups to young rabbits, the environment has undergone major changes. Such as: weaning, feed, cage changes, vaccination, disease prevention and other drugs. Therefore, we should do our best to reduce the impact of stress. Just weaned young rabbits should feed the feed before milk, require small capacity, good nutrition and easy digestion, add appropriate amount of inorganic salt, and gradually change the feed as the body gains, the amount of feed to eat eight Serving is appropriate, and it is usually fed 2 to 3 times a day.

(2) Health clearance. Do a good job in sanitation work, quiet and hygienic, dry, ventilated, moderate in temperature and density, prevent moisture, heat, cold, and air pollution.

(3) Sports Off. After weaning, the young rabbits are in a period of vigorous growth and development. They can exercise more and catch more sun, which is beneficial to the growth of bones and enhance gastrointestinal motility and promote metabolism.

(4) Epidemic prevention. Of the dead young rabbits, 90% died due to illness. Therefore, it is very important to grasp the prevention of epidemics. After more than 20 years of exploration and practice, the author has developed and improved a set of epidemic prevention procedures, and after partial factoryization of rabbit farms, Farmers use the effect is particularly good, the survival rate of young rabbits up to 90%, up to 98%.
