What is the best time to collect rabbit skins?
① Collect skins by age in months. At around 6 months of age, the second molt has ended and the fur enters its growth and maturation stage; the hair roots are firmly seated and not easily shed. At the same time, the skin board has basically matured, with good flexibility, toughness and elasticity, and the skin board area has also reached the grading standard. Therefore, collecting skins at 6 to 8 months of age is best, and can improve the grade and economic value of the rabbit skin. ② Collect skins by season. Collecting skins from the end of December to before the end of March of the following year is the best season for obtaining high-grade rabbit skins.

Detailed Explanation of Prevention and Treatment Methods for Common Diseases in Large-Scale Rabbit Farms
A large-scale rabbit farm mainly follows the immunization program, injecting vaccinations against three diseases: rabbit hemorrhagic disease, pasteurellosis, and clostridial disease. Secondly, prepare complete nutritional pelleted feed according to the nutritional needs of rabbits; feeding moldy feed is prohibited. As long as the feed is stabilized on a rabbit farm, the rabbit herd will stabilize. Rabbit diseases are fewer compared to chicken and pig diseases. However, rabbits are delicate animals with poor resistance; if a rabbit falls ill, it is very difficult to cure. For example, if a pig has diarrhea for 2 to 3 days it will not die, but if a rabbit has diarrhea for 2 to 3 hours it will die. Therefore, it is particularly important for rabbit farms to carry out epidemic prevention and hygiene, and to do a good job in feeding and management.

How to manage a rabbit farm? Keep these 4 key points in mind
1. Vigorously tackle disease prevention and control: In addition to controlling infectious diseases through preventive injections, coccidiosis in particular, which occurs mostly in spring, has a very high mortality rate and poses a great threat to rabbit farms. We should persist in combining prevention and treatment, with prevention as the priority. Veterinary drugs such as Qiu Ke can be mixed into the feed, and the whole farm can be sprayed once every 10 days with Baidusha, which can control the occurrence of coccidiosis. 2. Do a good job in rabbit breeding: Does have a short reproductive cycle and a high kindling rate, and breeding is highly technical and meticulous work. Timely mating and regular breeding should be carried out to improve the survival rate of young rabbits. 3. Seed

What are the key points and methods for feeding rabbits concentrated feed?
Concentrated feed includes energy-based grain feed ingredients such as corn, barley, wheat, sorghum, wheat bran, and fine rice bran, as well as feed ingredients with high protein content such as soybean meal, rapeseed cake, fish meal, silkworm pupae, and blood meal. Their common characteristics are low crude fiber content, low moisture content, and high nutritional value. To increase the weight gain rate of meat rabbits, make wool rabbits produce more wool, and make Rex rabbits produce more high-grade fur, concentrated feed is indispensable. The principle of using concentrated feed is to follow the nutritional needs of different types of rabbits, according to different regions and different

Rabbits Have Particular Water Needs: A Full Breakdown of Scientific Watering Methods
As the saying goes, "Better to lack a handful of grass than a mouthful of water," which fully illustrates the importance of drinking water for rabbits. So, what exactly does water do for a rabbit's growth, what happens after a rabbit is short of water, and how do you give rabbits water scientifically? 1. The role of water in rabbit growth. In the various tissues of a rabbit's body, water accounts for 70%, and in the blood it can reach 80%; the water content of bones, muscles and internal organs is 45%-75%. Not only is water indispensable for the digestion, transport and absorption of nutrients from all kinds of feed, the excretion of waste products and toxins produced by metabolism is also inseparable from water.

Sulfur Liniment Is Effective in Treating Rabbit Mange
Rabbit mange is a common and frequently occurring disease. It is an ectoparasitic disease caused by the rabbit itch mite (Sarcoptes scabiei var. cuniculi) parasitizing the skin of domestic rabbits, and it is highly contagious. If feeding and management are poor, it is easily overlooked, and it tends to break out during the rainy seasons of winter and spring, causing significant economic losses. In previous years, the author treated it with turpentine, camphor oil, 2% trichlorfon and other drugs. Although somewhat effective, multiple treatments were needed for a cure, and there were certain side effects. In recent years, by consulting elderly folk traditional Chinese veterinary practitioners and through repeated practice, the author has used compound sulfur to treat rabbit mange, with very good results.

Occurrence Patterns and Control Methods of Rabbit Necrobacillosis
I. Symptoms The sick rabbit loses its appetite, salivates, and develops hard nodules on the lips, oral mucosa, and gums, which then become necrotic and foul-smelling. The swellings sometimes occur on the neck, chest, face, or front of the chest, forming abscesses or ulcers. After the lesions rupture, a foul-smelling discharge flows out, and the course of the disease lasts as long as several weeks or months. The rabbit dies from elevated body temperature, emaciation, and exhaustion. II. Prevention and Control 1. Prevention: Rabbit cages should be free of sharp foreign objects to prevent biting and fighting and to prevent skin injuries. Rabbits should be bred and raised on the farm itself. Breeding rabbits introduced from other places must be isolated and quarantined for 1 month and may only be mixed into the group if they have no other diseases.

How can large-scale rabbit farms prevent disease? These new viewpoints are worth reading
Play down treatment, optimize the rabbit herd. Traditional rabbit farming emphasizes treatment over prevention, often turning the rabbit farm into a sanatorium for sick rabbits. To change this situation, some experts have proposed the "five no-treatment" rule for sick rabbits: do not treat rabbits that cannot be cured, do not treat rabbits whose treatment cost is high, do not treat rabbits whose treatment is time-consuming and labor-intensive, do not treat rabbits whose economic value after recovery is not high, and do not treat rabbits that are highly contagious and highly harmful. Practice has proved that after rabbit farms implemented this system, the health status of the rabbit herd improved markedly, virulent infectious diseases were effectively controlled
