How to raise rabbits in summer

In summer,

Rabbits are prone to pasteurosis, so newly purchased breeding rabbits must be vaccinated. Breeding rabbits should be vaccinated three times a year, once every four months if the conditions are better, and once every six months if the conditions are worse.

For prevention

, it is recommended to use "

original powder" and "

".

2. Feed fresh feed. Mix the ingredients one meal at a time, and be sure not to feed moldy feed, otherwise the rabbit will be prone to poisoning, diarrhea, and death. Do not feed grass with heavy water content, as it is easy to be infected with "

Clostridium" and "

". If you have an infection, you should get a Clostridium vaccine.

3. Use "bacteria poison", "

", "

" (dung ditch), etc. for environmental disinfection. Disinfectants should be used cross-wise to avoid

. Among them, "bacteria poison" and "

" can be used to disinfect the rabbit, while "

" requires the rabbit to leave the cage before it can be disinfected.

4. The newly bought rabbit should be fed with water and feed slowly, otherwise it will easily develop "heat

". Feed at around 7 o'clock in the morning. Feed less during the day and try to let the rabbit rest. Because rabbits have "night eating" characteristics and are active at 10 o'clock in the evening, they can be fed more. High temperature has a great impact on the growth, development and reproductive ability of rabbits. Therefore, it is necessary to do a good job in heatstroke prevention and cooling during the high temperature season.

Ventilation and cooling: It is best to keep the doors and windows of the rabbit house open day and night. When the air inside the house is dry, you can spray cold water on the ground inside the house to cool down at noon. It's best to use a fan to cool down when the weather is hot. When the solar radiation is particularly strong, cold water should be sprayed on the roof of the rabbit house to lower the temperature inside the house. Bricks soaked in well water can also be placed in the cage to absorb heat and cool down. However, when the house is humid, ventilation must be strengthened and kept as dry as possible. High temperature and high humidity are more harmful to the rabbit body.

Keep indoor ventilation in good condition.

Reduce the breeding density and reduce the impact of high temperature: It is best to raise rabbits on the ground or in low-level cages, but the ground must be kept clean and dry. Rabbits are nocturnal animals and eat more food at night than during the day. Especially in the high temperature season, they almost lie down and rest during the day and rarely eat. At this time, special attention should be paid to feeding in the early morning and evening.

Scientific ingredients: When formulating feed, attention should be paid to comprehensive nutrition, the protein content in the feed should be sufficient, and energy feed should be reduced, which can reduce the heat dissipation of the rabbit body. The feeding amount is appropriately reduced compared to other seasons. Wet mixed powder should be mixed and fed immediately, and should not be left for too long to avoid spoilage. Feed more green feed in summer. The green fodder must be clean, and the muddy fodder must be washed and drained of water before feeding. Green grass sprayed with pesticides and rotten green fodder must not be fed.

Provide enough drinking water: Provide enough drinking water and let them drink freely. The water should be cool and clean, preferably well water, and can be used as needed to relieve heat.

Stop breeding: High temperature is detrimental to rabbit reproduction, and breeding also affects rabbit body tolerance to high temperature.

Disease prevention: During the high temperature season, it is necessary to do a good job in cleaning, hygiene, epidemic prevention and disinfection in the rabbit house. The prevention of coccidiosis cannot be ignored. The inside of the house must be disinfected regularly, and a disinfection tank should be set up at the door of the house to disinfect entry and exit.

Sand doors and windows should be installed to prevent mosquitoes and flies from spreading diseases
