How do rabbits breed?
Rabbits are viviparous, and a female rabbit can give birth to about 5 rabbits at a time. In rare cases, two babies will be born.

Rabbits grow up and start estrus. Male rabbits often beat the ground with their hind legs to make noises and chase the female rabbits. In this period, it is easy to distinguish between males and females.

This behavior of the male rabbit is courting the female rabbit and showing his existence to the other party. Female rabbits can secrete a special smell when they are in estrus, and raise their tails and swing constantly, so that the secreted smell spreads outward, thus attracting male rabbits.

Extended data:

People who raise rabbits for the first time should do some preparatory work before raising rabbits.

(1) Learn rabbit breeding techniques.

It is necessary to buy some rabbit breeding materials, systematically study rabbit breeding theory and understand the biological characteristics of rabbits. You can consult experts from colleges and universities, scientific research units and rabbit farmers who have many years of experience in raising rabbits and accept their suggestions. It is best to take part in the rabbit breeding technical training class and visit the well-known rabbit farm for practice 1 ~ 2 weeks.

(2) Do a good job in market research.

Before the introduction, you should know the situation from authoritative departments and people. For example, ask the Ministry of Foreign Trade about the international market, the sales volume and prospects of various products such as fur rabbits, meat rabbits and wool rabbits; Ask the animal husbandry department about the characteristics of different breeds and what good rabbit farms there are; What are the lessons from learning rabbit farm management from relevant rabbit farms? So you can decide the variety, quantity and development plan you choose.

(3) Build a cage.

Before raising rabbits, build rabbit huts and cages and prepare related appliances, such as food basins, water basins and production boxes. And thoroughly clean and disinfect it one week before entering the rabbit, so that the rabbit will have a comfortable "home" as soon as it enters the field.

(4) prepare feed.

Roughage, concentrate, minerals and additives commonly used in rabbits should be prepared for more than 1 month. Before entering the rabbit, it is necessary to formulate the formula and prepare the feed according to the situation of the rabbit farm where the rabbit originated, so that the newly introduced rabbit will not have adverse reactions due to changing the feed.

(5) Prepare enough medical equipment and medicines.

It is necessary to prepare syringes, thermometers, scissors, tweezers and other common medical devices for the diagnosis and treatment of rabbit diseases. Commonly used drugs such as digestive AIDS, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs, topical drugs, antiparasitic drugs and rabbit plague vaccine should also be prepared.
