Effective measures to quickly fatten meat rabbits
1. Careful management of young rabbits and meat rabbit. Generally, young rabbits can not open their eyes until about 20 days after birth. Before the young rabbits open their eyes, they should always check whether they are drinking enough milk. If the mother rabbit has too many litters, which leads to insufficient milk and some young rabbits are not full, some young rabbits need to be fostered. In any case, it is necessary to ensure that the young rabbits have enough food and sleep well.
2. Supplementary feeding in time. Usually after 20 days of lactation, the milk production of the lactating female rabbit decreases, and with the continuous development of the pups, the diet increases. At this time, all rely on milk to feed, and it is difficult to meet the growth and development needs of the pups. Therefore, generally around the age of 18 days, the young rabbits need to be fed with an appropriate amount of easy-to-digest, easy-to-absorb green and high-quality food. And during this period, attention should be paid to the control of coccidiosis in young rabbits.
3. Ensure that the rabbit has enough water. If the rabbit drinks less water and lacks water in the body, it is easy to suffer from symptoms such as loss of appetite, constipation, and even death due to dehydration. Therefore, in the process of raising rabbits, we must ensure that they drink enough water.
4. Meat rabbits are in the early fattening stage at 60 days of age, but because the gastrointestinal development of rabbits in this period is not yet complete, Young rabbits are gluttonous and prone to indigestion, so the owner must strictly control the supply of rabbit rations during this period. Generally, each young rabbit is fed 40~60g of special feed for young rabbits, and then fed with an appropriate amount of green feed, so that the rabbit is 7~80% full! The 60-120-day-old period of the rabbit is the late fattening period. During this period, the organs of the rabbit have been fully developed, and the digestive ability and self-regulation function have also been greatly enhanced, and this period is also a period of vigorous growth and development of the rabbit. The host can feed each rabbit 90-120g of ingredients every day, and supply green fodder in an unlimited amount. In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to supplementing the rabbit with sufficient night grass and drinking water at night.
5. Rabbits are raised in mixed groups. Generally, 1-2 30-day-old rabbits and 4-5 20-day-old rabbits are mixed in cages, which can effectively stimulate the excitability of the rabbits to actively eat. According to experience, mixed group feeding can increase the growth rate of fattening rabbits by about 15% compared with pure group feeding. Generally, a fattening rabbit cage with a size of 70 cm × 50 cm is suitable for raising 4 to 6 rabbits.
6. Do a good job in the prevention of rabbit blight diseases, and regularly vaccinate rabbits to reduce the occurrence of diseases in rabbits.
