Causes of abortion in female rabbits
1. Abortion due to lack of certain nutrients . There are many details that need to be paid attention to in the management of pregnant female rabbits. Many pregnant female rabbits are caused by miscarriage due to the owner’s neglect of feeding problems in the breeding process. One of the more common feeding problems is the imbalance of nutrients in rabbit feed. In addition to adequate nutrition, pregnant female rabbits also need to supplement appropriate amount of trace elements, which play a great role in embryo formation. If the female rabbit lacks these trace elements, it is easy to have weak fetuses, rigid fetuses, and miscarriages. Nutrient elements such as vitamins, proteins, and minerals are essential elements for female rabbits to be pregnant. Owners who raise pregnant female rabbits must pay attention to supplementing these nutrients with female rabbits, and ensure that each nutritional element is balanced.
2. The female rabbit was miscarried due to improper feeding. The miscarriage of female rabbits caused by improper feeding operations is mainly reflected in the following two aspects: 1. The quality of the feed; 2. The handling problems during feeding. Feed quality mainly refers to unclean or improperly handled feed, half-cooked feed, or expired and deteriorated feed, etc., which are easy for female rabbits to eat. Improper feeding treatment mainly means that the feed fed by the owner is too cold, or the feeding method is more than rude, etc. These problems will also cause the female rabbit to miscarry.
3. The female rabbit’s own disease causes miscarriage. Female rabbits have low resistance and are more susceptible to disease. However, some reproductive system diseases of female rabbits are not easy to be found. These reproductive system diseases have a great impact on the fertilization and conception of female rabbits, and some will cause the female rabbit to miscarry. In addition, the female rabbit has various diseases of the reproductive system and cannot reproduce in a short period of time. It must be confirmed that the female rabbit is cured before allowing her to reproduce. For this reason, it is necessary for the owner to check the male and female rabbits for reproductive system diseases before breeding the breeding rabbits, so as to avoid frequent miscarriage after the female rabbit is pregnant.
4. Illness in the female rabbit during pregnancy leads to miscarriage. After the female rabbit is pregnant, its resistance is basically reduced to the lowest level, so the pregnant female rabbit is a group that is very susceptible to diseases, and they are prone to get sick because of some minor problems. Sickness during pregnancy is a big problem in female rabbits causing miscarriages. Once the female rabbit suffers from rabbit plague, pasteurellosis, enteritis and other diseases, it is very likely to cause miscarriage. In addition, the female rabbit will also have a miscarriage due to heatstroke. In this case, the female rabbit will even lose its own body. It is difficult to support, let alone save the fetus, so the problem of miscarriage after the mother rabbit is sick is relatively small, and the most serious one is one corpse and two lives. Therefore, the owner should strictly manage the pregnant rabbit during the pregnancy of the female rabbit, do a good job in the prevention of common diseases of the female rabbit, and try to reduce the probability of the female rabbit getting sick.
The above are some of the common causes of miscarriage in female rabbits that we have summarized. We hope that the owners will actively prevent pregnant rabbits.
