How to prevent skin diseases in rabbits?

Rabbit hair is not very fine, it may be a skin disease. Of course, the owner doesn't want this to happen to pet rabbits, so he should pay attention to disease prevention at ordinary times.

First, how to judge whether the rabbit's skin is healthy?

Usually, there is something wrong with the skin, and obvious pathological changes will be seen, such as dry skin, sparse fur or depilation, redness or rash of the skin, thickening of the skin, scabbing or dandruff, and scratching of the skin due to lack of oxygen. If the above symptoms are absent, the skin is clean and the fur is soft and shiny, then there is no problem.

Second, how to prevent skin diseases in rabbits?

1. The environment is dry and clean. Pay attention to ventilation.

This is really important for rabbits. Humid environment is a hotbed of bacteria and fungi. The place where rabbits move should be cleaned regularly, and the cage should be cleaned every day and disinfected regularly. The cage has just been cleaned, and it is not dry enough. Don't let Tutu go back. Don't let Tutu play in wet toilets and other places. It is even more wrong to put it in the bathroom!

2. Don't use drugs indiscriminately.

Bunny's skin occasionally produces a small amount of dandruff during molting. Don't see that dandruff is a skin disease, and then rush to see a doctor. Whoever suggested taking this medicine should try it, because it will irritate the skin instead. The body needs a balance of flora. Under normal circumstances, beneficial bacteria will inhibit the reproduction of fungi and harmful bacteria. Indiscriminate drug use will also upset this balance.

3. You can bask in the sun.

In lukewarm weather (the temperature should not exceed 25 degrees), it is beneficial to prevent skin diseases to give rabbits more sunshine. Sunbathing is also helpful for the treatment of mild fungal skin diseases.

4. Enhance physical fitness.

We often encounter that when rabbits are born with other diseases, fungal skin diseases also come at the same time. This is the performance of its physical decline and flora imbalance.

5. Observe the rabbit at ordinary times and check the rabbit's skin regularly.

In fact, it is the best time to observe the skin when grooming rabbits.

6. Rabbits with skin diseases need to be isolated.

If you have a lot of rabbits, once one of them has a skin disease, you should isolate it, which is contagious, and you should also pay attention to washing your hands in the process of taking care of many rabbits to avoid becoming a vector of infection.
