Feeding rabbits glucose produces better breeding results

General News By Sophie Bennett 0 views
Rabbits are fond of sweet tastes. Adding 8%-12% glucose to a rabbit's compound feed or mixed feed can mask unpleasant flavors in the feed, stimulate the rabbit's appetite, increase feed intake, and speed up weight gain. Generally, the weight gain of young rabbits can be increased by about 25%, and it can also reduce feed waste caused by rabbits being picky eaters.

Generally, the weight gain of young rabbits can be increased by about 25%, and it can also reduce feed waste caused by rabbits being picky eaters.

Enhancing resistance: Adding 8%-12% glucose to rabbit feed allows it to be absorbed quickly, thereby increasing physical strength, supplementing nutrition, protecting liver cells from harm by harmful factors, and enhancing resistance to infectious diseases and poisoning diseases, greatly reducing the incidence rate in the rabbit herd and significantly reducing deaths from unknown causes. Increasing the proportion of female newborn rabbits: Starting from 12 days before mating of the female rabbit, add 20 g-30 g of glucose to the daily ration, or dissolve it in water and feed it, then stop feeding after mating. This can increase the proportion of female newborn rabbits by 12%. Restoring weak young rabbits to health: Adding 15% glucose to the feed of young rabbits with weaker constitutions can increase the appetite of weak young rabbits. On the basis of strengthened feeding management, it can help them recover and become strong again quickly. Preventing diseases: From the 20th day of pregnancy of the female rabbit to the 2nd day after delivery, adding 20 g of glucose to its daily ration each day can effectively prevent the occurrence of epidemic diseases. Improving the effectiveness of medication: When medicating through feed to prevent and treat rabbit diseases, because rabbits are picky eaters, they often dislike eating due to the unusual smell of the medicine. If 15% glucose is mixed in at the same time, it can increase the rabbit's feed intake and ensure that the rabbit can consume a sufficient amount of the medicine. When medicating through drinking water, glucose can be added to stimulate the rabbit's desire to drink water and improve the effectiveness of medication.
