What are the considerations when formulating feed for rabbits
Pay attention to selecting ingredients according to local conditions. The selected raw materials must not only meet the nutritional needs of domestic rabbits, but also suit local conditions, using locally available forage as much as possible. Pay attention to feed diversity. Combining a variety of feeds can play a role in nutritional complementation. Pay attention to seasonal differences. In most regions of China, green succulent feed is scarce in winter and spring, and domestic rabbits are prone to vitamin deficiency, so supplementation should be noted.

How should baby rabbits be raised so they can grow up healthily?
Getting enough colostrum. A newborn kit has no fur on its body surface, its eyes are tightly shut, its ears are closed, its ability to regulate body temperature is very poor, and its digestive organs are not yet fully developed. The colostrum secreted by the doe during the first 1-2 days after kindling contains large amounts of antibodies and trace elements, and also has a mild laxative effect, which helps promote the growth of the kits and helps them pass all their meconium. Therefore, if the kits can get enough colostrum in time and sleep well, their normal growth and development can be ensured. Some does, especially first-time does, do not have a strong mothering instinct and do not nurse their kits after kindling. In this case, the doe should be restrained

What are the precautions for feeding vegetables to rabbits?
The water content of vegetables is about 85%, and their crude fiber content is low, giving them good palatability. Rabbits tend to overeat them. Feeding vegetable leaves to young rabbits within 90 days of age will cause diarrhea in the young rabbits within just a few days. If rabbits develop diarrhea after eating vegetables, stop feeding vegetables, increase the feeding of green hay and dry leaves, and mix 2% charcoal powder or 2% medicinal charcoal into the mixed feed or compound feed for treatment. When the soil where vegetables are grown has been heavily fertilized with nitrogen, treated with herbicides, or when the vegetables are affected by pests, drought, or insufficient sunlight and turn red, their nitrate content increases. Rabbits overeat vegetable leaves and thus take in more nitrate
