If there is no safe space (such as balcony), you can also keep it in a cage, which has more space (the cage for small dogs can). You can't stay in the cage all the time. You should be released for more than an hour or two every day.
Prepare a feed bowl and a water bowl in the cage, grind its teeth with a clean board with a diameter of 5- 10 cm, and put some dry sawdust and straw (dry towels are also acceptable).
Rabbits are omnivorous. Feed them once in the morning and once in the evening. You can buy rabbit feed in the bird garden, or you can add some grain or molar feed to the feed.
For balanced nutrition, don't just feed, sometimes you can feed fruits and vegetables, such as spinach, celery, Qingjiang vegetables, sweet potato leaves, carrots, apples, guava and so on. Because the drainage function of rabbits is poor, it is best not to contain pesticides and to clean them thoroughly. After washing, put it in a ventilated place to dry 1 ~ 2 hours (do not expose to the sun), and then dry the remaining water with a kitchen paper towel. Don't be too wet, or you will have diarrhea, which is difficult to treat.
Also, rabbits need water, not raw water. It must be boiled water. You can put more water in the feed. Feed more fruits and vegetables, and there will be less water.
In addition, rabbits love to be clean, so it is convenient to put them in a fixed place in the cage (usually in another corner where the feed is put), so you can spread a newspaper under the cage (preferably a white newspaper, because rabbits sometimes bite the newspaper, and the ink in the newspaper is not good for rabbits), and spread several more layers in the convenient corner. Rabbit urine is very smelly and heavy, so it is necessary to change newspapers frequently, about once every two days, otherwise the room will soon be full of "fragrance" and rabbits will not be able to stand it.
You can also make a fixed toilet outside the cage, prepare an outer box of western-style cakes, cut it into an L shape (remove the upper part and one side), and put several layers of newspapers. After the rabbit urinates, clean up the dirty newspaper immediately, or it won't pee in the same place.
As for how to teach rabbits to fix conveniently outside the cage, it is just like teaching puppies to fix conveniently. In this respect, rabbits are smarter than dogs and can be taught once or twice.
Rabbits are too emotional to eat. When it is hungry and finds there is no food in the bowl, it will knock over all the bowls and make a sound to tell you that it is hungry. When it steps on your back foot, you must reflect on yourself. Because the rabbit's hind foot indicates that it is angry or warns its companion of danger.
Never underestimate the wisdom of rabbits. When you get to know it, you will find that it is sometimes smarter than people.
The life span of rabbits is about 6 years. Please cherish every time you get along.
Research motivation:
Because some students in our group keep rabbits, we observe rabbits. Of course, we also think rabbits are cute.
Raise rabbits
Rabbit's food: vegetables, carrots, feed, cabbage, etc.
Things to prepare for raising rabbits: cages, sawdust, plates filled with water.
Pay attention to raising rabbits: don't take a bath, don't make it too frightened, and don't let it drink too much water.
Observe rabbits
1 day Rabbit observation date: May 6th.
The rabbit ate a small piece of cabbage, drank a little water and peed three times today.
The date of observing rabbits the next day: May 8th.
The rabbit ate a small piece of carrot today, didn't drink water, and defecated twice.
Date of observation of rabbits on the third day: May 1 1.
The rabbit ate a small piece of carrot, drank two mouthfuls of water, peed once and twice today.
Rabbit breeding-rabbit's red eye
In fact, only the Japanese white rabbit thinks its eyes are "red", because after artificial cultivation and improvement, the pigment disappears and the eyes become transparent, which leads to the microvessels visible in the rabbit. The diseases of rabbits themselves are nothing more than diarrhea caused by parasites and diarrhea and colds caused by eating unclean food ... this is the most common disease. For humans, it is nothing to small animals, but it will kill them. So when buying rabbits, it is best to choose rabbits that are already 3 months old. Don't choose rabbits that are too young, except those with weak resistance. Without the care of their mother, it will be more difficult for them to survive ...! ! !
Once the rabbit gets sick:
First: because it has no appetite and is not easy to observe, you should pay more attention to their every move. When you really find it doesn't eat, it may be quite serious.
Second: poor activity, just hide in a corner and shrink there. Other rabbits may be playing or eating, so it won't get involved. Be careful at this time, you may get sick.
Third, observe the poop. Rabbits are all black and round, and big rabbits will be bigger. If wet poop is found, it is very important to check each rabbit's ass. Once you have diarrhea, you should see a doctor as soon as possible. It's best to check the stool, because we can correctly understand the cause, but it takes nearly 3 days for the examination to have the result and 3 days for the treatment to have the effect, so it's really early detection. In order to save their fragile lives ... If the veterinary shop doesn't open in the middle of the night or on holidays, I'll teach you a way, which is to stabilize their electrolytes first, because diarrhea is bound to dehydrate, and drinking water alone doesn't have much effect. You might as well add some drinks like Baokuangli to balance their electrolytes. If it's a 200cc container, add 40 ccㄉ Bao Kuang Li (5: 1), and avoid infecting other rabbits, add a small light bulb to keep warm, and try to feed it. If it doesn't eat, there is another way, which is to use oatmeal+wheat flour+water and feed it with that oatmeal juice. You can feed it with a clean syringe (no needle), feed it slowly and it will definitely eat (hungry, thirsty and weak), and take it to the veterinary hospital the next day ...! ! Rabbits have a runny nose when they catch a cold. It is best not to put them in a place with high humidity, nor to bathe or splash water on them. It is easy to catch a cold. If the rabbit accidentally touches the water. Dry with a hair dryer as soon as possible. If you have a bad cold, keep warm and take it to the vet. When the weather is fine, take it to the balcony to bask in the sun. Don't bask in the sun at noon. Don't sunbathe too long. It is best to have a shady place to strengthen your bones and muscles.
The study of rabbits
Variety:
Rabbits belong to vertebrates, mammals, Rabbiniformes and Rabbinidae. There are about 1 1 genus and 45 species of rabbits in the family Rabbinidae, but our most common rabbits belong to rabbits or burrowing rabbits.
Best variety: Angola variety.
Most precious: Mexican pygmy rabbits can only be seen on the slopes of two volcanoes, such as the smoke peak in Mexico.
Most dangerous: European cave rabbits were first distributed in southwest Europe, and then began to expand northward. In the early days, some people moved northward with it and were later brought to Europe. Wherever they go, they will do harm to local crops. Discoloration:
Rabbits living in cold areas, such as mountain rabbits and North American rabbits, will be brown in summer and white in winter, so they are not easy to be found in the snow. This change of coat color is realized in the process of changing wool.
Research experience:
This study gives us a deeper understanding of rabbits, as well as their habits, varieties and feeding methods, which makes us familiar with rabbits and makes us feel that it is not difficult to raise a rabbit. I hope you have a better understanding of rabbits after reading this report.
Tutu's stomach is very fragile.
Eating a bad stomach will not show up immediately.
Eating vegetables every day is not suitable for feeding.
It's like eating chronic poison.
If you wait too long, your tutu may die suddenly.
The last time I saw a person's rabbit, I was also fed the wrong food.
After raising it for more than a year, one night, it suddenly died of mouth and nose bleeding.
The reason is that rabbits are fed the wrong food.
It led to rotten intestines and finally the disease broke out. It hit the cage, painfully hit the wall and died.
After autopsy, it was found that the intestines were rotten.
Therefore, it is very important to eat correctly.
When winter comes, you can build a nest for Tutu with old clothes and quilts.
If you are locked in a cage.
Put Tutu on the blanket.
If you keep it, you can build him a small house like a kennel.
Rabbits should eat Timothy grass+rabbit food+boiled water.
Change the food quickly.
I won't tell you what to eat yet. You said you wanted to feed the cabbage and asked what was going on. Simply put: eating people can live, but eating dogs can't die. The difference is how long you can live.
The normal life span of a rabbit is 7- 10 years, although I have never seen it live that long, because the rabbit itself is very delicate, and it died before it lived that big. But if you feed scientifically, you can generally live for about 5 years. There are many people who feed you like this. I have never seen anyone who has lived for two years.
In other words, you feel that you are raising well now, and after a long time, the health problems of rabbits have come out. For example, if you don't eat lifting wood, you can't grind your teeth all the time, and your front teeth will get longer and longer. However, if the posterior teeth are too long, they can only be incised after general anesthesia, which is very risky for the rabbit itself. Few hospitals can do this. In the past, the rabbit's back teeth were so long that it punctured its tongue and couldn't eat anything.
If you don't eat high-fiber grass, it is difficult for the gastrointestinal tract to expel the hair it eats. Rabbits like to lick themselves as much as cats to clean themselves up, but cats can vomit and rabbits can't. If rabbits can't expel these hairs, they will block the gastrointestinal tract, that is, hairball disease, and they also need surgery.
Another advantage is that it is convenient for people. Eating hay makes urine smell less, which is not a small problem. . . .
Having said that, I wonder if you can change your habit of keeping rabbits. If you want them to stay with you for a few more years, you can replace them. If you think it doesn't matter whether the rabbit lives or dies, forget it. Feed your Chinese cabbage.
Chinese cabbage leaves contain a lot of water and are not suitable for rabbits. After a long time, it will lead to diarrhea in rabbits, which is difficult to treat. In winter, rabbit food and ladder grass are the main food, and steamed bread, apples and cabbage are occasionally fed.
Rabbit's favorite food
Vegetables: carrots, sweet potatoes, Chinese cabbage (cabbage), cucumbers, radish leaves, pumpkins and vegetables. When feeding vegetables, be sure to wash and drain before feeding.
Fruit: oranges, bananas, grapes, apples and strawberries. When feeding fruits, the water consumption of rabbits should be reduced appropriately to adjust the absorption of water.
Grass: shepherd's purse, plantain, dandelion and goose intestines.
Other foods: bean curd residue, bread.
Food taboo
Food that should be paid attention to: if corn and peanuts are not fresh, they will easily produce aflatoxin, so they can only be fed fresh. In addition, potato sprouts contain toxins, so be especially careful.
Rabbits' ears are where nerves and blood vessels are concentrated. Don't hold it with your hands!
Clean the home and keep healthy.
However, the layout of the rabbit cage must not be taken lightly: First, try not to use the net bottom, and it is best to put a soft pad or cloth at the bottom of the cage, because the rabbit's hind foot is born with a soft pillow to detect the enemy's attack. Standing at the bottom of the cage for a long time will make the rabbit's feet produce meat particles, and its foot shape will also become eight-shaped, which is not conducive to walking, and may seriously make it resist being picked up. In addition, the rabbit will choose one of the four corners of the cage as the toilet seat, and the opposite corner is the bed for sleeping. Just put a soft cloth on the bed and it will rest easy.
Spreading sawdust is a designated action to absorb urine, so that the thrown rabbit hair will not be raised everywhere. Remember to change frequently, otherwise rabbits are prone to skin diseases, such as toe depilation and cocoon formation. You'd better spread sawdust on the rabbit toilet. To train it to use the toilet, it is best to hold it in the toilet immediately when it defecates, and then it will know where it is "convenient".
Take a warm bath every three months.
In order to maintain the mighty appearance of the lion and rabbit, it is essential to take care of the hair regularly. According to Bao Xian, a pet shop assistant, it is best to comb the rabbit's hair once a day, otherwise it will be tied into a ball in the future, which is ugly and difficult to take care of. It is best for the pet shop specialist to cut it, otherwise it will easily hurt its tender skin.
Bathing pets is also a science, but it turns out that rabbits themselves are very clean. If you wipe your body and remove eye stains every day, it is not a problem to bathe it once every three months. But remember to take advantage of the sunny day, give it a warm bath first, and then sunbathe, which is cool and not afraid of "cold kiss"! You can also use dry cleaning powder, sprinkle it on rabbits, and then comb it off with a comb. Rabbits will be delicious in class!
Legend has it that rabbits have a glass belly. In fact, as long as you don't rub it hard, you can touch it or hold it gently.
Beware of rabbit bb stomach cold
Newborn rabbits are prone to catch cold, so it is best to wrap a soft cloth around the cage and put it in a warm place indoors as far as possible. Rabbits with colds have a runny nose, just like humans have a runny nose. As soon as you find such a situation, you should ask a pet doctor for help, otherwise it will be extremely difficult to treat. It's also a big problem for rabbits. It is best to ask the seller what food he has eaten before continuing to use it. Don't put a big carrot in it casually, or the rabbit will lick the water and easily dehydrate and die, which is very pitiful.
