The rabbits in the cave were reared according to the habits and biological characteristics of the wild rabbits and imitated the survival conditions of the wild rabbits. Caves are simple and easy to raise rabbits, and reducing investment in the construction of rabbit houses, rabbit cages, insulation and cooling equipment is an effective new way for rural families to increase their income. This article gives an introduction to the method of raising rabbits in caves.
First, dig a cave
Choose a hill slope with a slope of about 45 degrees from the highway and living area with convenient transportation, adequate water sources, good drainage, and a sunny south-facing slope. For a site with a horizontal mound along the slope, a slope of 1.5-2m in height and a plane width of 2m, cover a width of 1.5m and a height of 2m in the shed, and use it as a breeding and management site, and it is also possible not to cover the shed, as long as it is in the cave mouth. The top cover is a simple small roof, which is good for sheltering wind and rain, but you should pay attention to the cold insulation work. Then dig a hole on the slope 30cm from the ground, the width of the cave is 45-50cm, the width of the cave is 45cm, height is 30cm, and depth is 60cm. Bricks are built at the entrance to the top of the cave, leaving a female rabbit in the middle to relax. In and out of the small mouth, a row of 35-40cm deep, rabbit-cage-like feeding and activity venues were built with bricks outside the cavern opening to form two types of inside and outside, high up to the top of the hole, and the bottom was put into action. The bamboo grille and the lower mouth of the grille are of the same height or slightly lower surface, which is convenient for hygiene and daily production management. In the cave, female rabbits rest and give birth, avoiding the cold in the evening. As the cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, it is conducive to cold and heatstroke, adapting to the growth of rabbits. When the pups were weaned, they should be transferred to a breeding cave.
The layout of the cave may vary depending on the height of the slope, and two layers or trapezoidal digging of three-layer caves may be alternately performed in the form of a "product" to form a row of staggered cave groups. This facilitates the defecation of the upper two layers of rabbits. Size and size. In order to prevent water seepage on the slope, a drainage ditch parallel to the slope surface can be dug 1.5-2m away from the slope.
Second, feeding and management
The maternal females will be able to give birth 30 days after conception, and will have the performance of pulling and titled grass nests before 1-2 days of litter. At this time, attention should be paid to placing soft hay or cotton wool in the circle in time for the female rabbits. Into the cave for nest litter use. Before the farrowing of the female rabbits, clean and warm salty boiled water or glucose water should be prepared in advance, and some juicy feeds can also be added to meet the water requirement of the postpartum female rabbits, so as to avoid thirsty moments after the female rabbits are born. Can not find the water to drink, run back to the cave to eat puppies.
Due to the fact that the earthen hole is warm in winter and cool in summer, rabbits can reproduce 4-5 tires a year. The best breeding season is from the middle of September to the end of March of the following year, and breeding in hot summer should be avoided.
After weaning, the males and females of the pups were separated and transferred to a breeding cave for breeding. Each litter size rabbit should be grouped in groups to avoid undue loss due to fighting. After the rabbit group is determined not to fight, it can be grouped and transferred to normal feeding. Care should be taken during feeding to clean out the remaining feed, grass and excrement in the kiln, and keep the cave clean, hygienic and dry.
Third, disease prevention
Caves have the characteristics of being warm in winter and cool in summer, and rabbits rarely get sick, but in the production of rabbits, prevention is the main method, and treatment is supplemented. Rabbits are immunized every autumn and winter and early spring cold season. Twenty-nine to thirty-day-old rabbits are vaccinated with 1 ml of attenuated rabbit vaccine. The immunization period is 5 to 7 days and the immunization period is 6 months. In the early spring and the rainy season, care should be taken to prevent coccidiosis in rabbits. Chlorobenzide can be given at 150 mg per kilogram of concentrate, and for 45 days from the age of 30 days. Sulfamethazine is added to the diet in 1% of the mixture or 2 grams per kilogram of water for 2 days. It has a therapeutic effect. Chopped onions, garlic, leeks, etc. can often be mixed in the feed to prevent coccidiosis. In the rainy season, feeding dandelion, Malan head, Viola divaricata, Artemisia annua, plantain, Houttuynia cordata, iron leeks, etc., have anti-inflammatory, dampness, detoxification and other effects. Rickets, also known as rickets, is one of the common diseases of rabbits and directly affects the growth of rabbits. The general mortality rate is 10-20%, which is extremely harmful to the rabbit breeding industry. When the introduction of quarantine should pay attention to, usually diligent investigation, found that diseased rabbits should be promptly treated or eliminated. For all rabbits with a history of disease, they must regularly wash their extremities with 2% aqueous solution of trichlorfon, and use flame lamps to spray insects in appliances, caves, and activities. The grid should be kept dry, hygienic, ventilated and ventilated. Disinfecting the cleaned out pollutants should be carried out. It can be sprayed with 30% hot-wood ash leaching solution or 20% quicklime clarifier or 3-5% keloidin. Keep the rabbit's skin clean and hygienic, strengthen feeding management, and eliminate the source of infection and the route of transmission.
