Diagnosis and Treatment Methods for Rabbit Pasteurellosis and Bordetellosis
From May to July 2002, a disease characterized by rhinitis and acute death occurred successively at a certain rabbit farm. Through laboratory bacteriological examination, it was diagnosed as rabbit pasteurellosis. The report is as follows: 1. Basic information. The rabbit farm is located at the **Chabucha'er County Dairy Farm. Rabbit farming began in 2000. Currently, California rabbits, Belgian rabbits and other breeds are raised, with a total of more than 1,000 young and adult rabbits. All are raised in cages. No vaccines were injected, and no major epidemic had occurred in the past two years. In late May 2002, after continuous heavy rain, due to low temperature in the rabbit house

A Clever Treatment for Neonatal Rabbit Kits Refusing to Nurse
Neonatal rabbit kits refusing to nurse is caused by nutritional imbalance in the doe during late pregnancy. This condition develops 2 to 3 days after the kits are born, and within the same litter, some or all of the kits come down with it one after another. Affected kits show signs of not suckling, skin that is cool and dark, and a body that is soft and weak all over, finally dying in a comatose state. Treatment method: slip a 2 cm piece of bicycle valve-core latex tubing over the nozzle of a syringe, draw up 25% glucose solution, then insert the latex tubing into the mouth of the affected kit and slowly push the plunger, giving each kit 1 to 2 milliliters; for kits that can no longer swallow,

How should a sick rabbit be handled correctly after it is discovered?
(1) Detect promptly and handle as soon as possible. Each rabbit should be examined 1-2 times every day, and any disease found should be dealt with immediately; delaying will lose the opportunity for treatment. Therefore, the earlier a diseased rabbit is treated, the better. (2) Make a rough judgment and use medication as soon as possible. In addition to being able to make a clear judgment, targeted treatment measures can be taken for conditions such as sarcoptic mange, ringworm, and mastitis; for diseased rabbits with uncertain causes such as diarrhea, fever, and poor appetite, certain drug treatment should be given first. For diarrheal disease, oral or injectable anti-

Most sick rabbits have diarrhea, elevated body temperature, depression, complete loss of appetite, increased thirst, and emaciation. Female rabbits discharge viscous, purulent secretions from the vagina. Pathological changes: the liver shows diffuse or scattered yellow necrotic foci the size of needle tips, and the gallbladder is distended

Five observation points when feeding rabbits
One, look at the rabbit's size. Generally, an adult rabbit weighing about 3.5 kg needs 150-200 g of feed per day; a young rabbit weighing about 1.75 kg needs 100-150 g of feed per day. The ideal moisture level of the feed is when it lightly holds together when squeezed and falls apart when the hand is released. Two, look at whether the rabbit is fat or thin. For fat rabbits, appropriately reduce the amount of concentrated feed and increase green fodder or roughage; for thin rabbits, supplement nutrition and feed more concentrated feed. You can also feed some soaked soybeans, or mash bean dregs, mix them with boiling water, and stir them into the feed for the rabbits. Three, look at whether the feces are dry or wet. If the rabbit's

How to Do a Good Job of Disinfection in Rabbit Farms in Late Spring and Summer
Late spring and early summer is the time when bacteria and viruses begin to multiply in large numbers. Therefore, disinfection work on rabbit farms should be placed in an important position. To this end, the disinfection techniques for rabbit farms in early summer are introduced as follows: 1. Rabbit house disinfection: disinfect once a week. Before disinfection, thoroughly remove leftover feed, bedding straw and other filth, scrub clean with clean water, and disinfect after drying. The disinfectant can be a 2% caustic soda solution, etc.; a blowtorch or the flame of burning firewood and grass can also be used for disinfection, which is very effective at killing insect eggs and parasites. 2. Feeding utensil disinfection: every

What are the new perspectives on disease prevention in large-scale rabbit farms? Worth reading
Play down treatment and optimize the rabbit herd. Traditional rabbit farming emphasizes treatment over prevention, often turning a 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 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, and medical costs

Which types of feed cannot be used alone to feed rabbits?
1. White radish leaves: White radish leaves contain very high levels of chlorophyll and a lot of water. If rabbits eat too much, they are prone to bloating, diarrhea, indigestion, and similar problems. Therefore, when feeding white radish leaves to rabbits, they should be mixed with other forage grasses, vegetable leaves, and so on. 2. Peanut vines: Peanut vines are rich in nutrients, and rabbits love to eat them, but because they contain a lot of crude fiber and water, excessive intake by rabbits can easily cause big belly disease, loose stools, indigestion, and similar problems, so they should not be fed alone in large amounts. In addition, when using peanut vines to feed rabbits, combining them with feeding the rabbits some onions, garlic heads

How is High-Quality Angora Rabbit Wool Produced? Key Technical Points Explained
Rabbit hair is divided into three types: fine hair, coarse hair, and two-type hair. Fine hair, also known as rabbit down, has an average fineness of 12-14 microns and is the shortest of the three types. It has distinctly irregular crimps. Because fine hair has good physical and chemical properties, it has high textile value in the wool textile industry. Generally speaking, its price is also higher than the other two types. Therefore, mastering rabbit down production techniques to produce more fine hair is an effective means of improving the production efficiency of Angora rabbits. 1. Understand the quality requirements for rabbit down. Rabbit down should be pure white, fully loose, free of impurities,
