The daily diet of rabbits should consist of high-quality pellet feed, fresh hay (alfalfa, pasture or oats), water and fresh vegetables. Other food supplies are snacks and should not be given too much. What is a good pellet feed? Feed should be fresh and high in fiber content (at least 18%). Don't buy for more than six weeks at a time, because the feed will go bad. When rabbits get older, the amount of feed should be gradually reduced, and hay should be supplied 24 hours a day.
What vegetables should I feed the rabbit?
When buying vegetables, look for different kinds of vegetables, such as dark-colored vegetables and root vegetables, and try to find vegetables with different colors. Don't buy beans and rhubarb (this is a laxative).
Is feeding hay important?
Hay is necessary to maintain the health of rabbits. It can provide crude fiber and reduce the risk of hairballs and other intestinal obstruction problems. You can also grind your teeth. Apple branches can also provide high-quality crude fiber.
What should Chibiusa and Bunny eat?
Just born to three weeks old: breast milk
Three to four weeks: breast milk, a little alfalfa, feed.
Four to seven weeks: breast milk, slowly increase the amount of alfalfa and feed.
Seven-star period to seven months: unlimited feed supply and hay (please look at the bottom 12 weeks first)
Twelve weeks old: Give vegetables slowly (one vegetable at a time, and keep the amount below14g).
How much food should rabbits (young rabbits) eat from seven months to one year old?
Slowly feed forage and oat hay to reduce the amount of alfalfa.
Reduce the amount of feed to about half a cup per 2.5 kg.
Slowly increase the amount of vegetables every day.
The daily fruit supply should not exceed 30 to 60 grams per 2.5 kilograms (because fruit contains more calories).
How much food should rabbits (adult rabbits) from one to five years old eat?
Unlimited supply of hay, oat hay and straw
Feed a quarter to a half cup of feed every 2.5 kg (according to the metabolism of rabbits or the number of vegetables)
Give at least two cups of chopped vegetables every 2.5 kilograms.
Do not give more than 60 grams of fruit per 2.5 kilograms.
How much food should rabbits over six (older rabbits) eat?
If the weight remains the same, you can continue to feed adult rabbits.
Old and frail rabbits may need an unlimited supply of feed to maintain their weight. If rabbits are underweight, they can be fed alfalfa (but only if the calcium content of rabbits is normal). It is best for an old sick rabbit to have a blood test once a year.
If a small amount of pellet feed is fed, how can other aspects be supplemented? When feeding a small amount of feed, you must use other foods with less calories to supplement the nutrients in the feed, such as increasing the amount of vegetables. At the same time, you should also supply all kinds of hay and straw all day. How many times can a day be divided?
And maintain a proper temperature.
Water is an important factor for the survival of rabbits, and the water contained in rabbits accounts for about 70% of their body weight. Water is the medium of digestion and absorption, and all kinds of digestive juices of rabbits contain water. The water in the gastrointestinal tract can stimulate the secretion of gastric juice, dilute intestinal juice, and make the digested nutrients easy to absorb. Water participates in chemical actions inside and outside cells, promoting metabolism; Water is an important substance for regulating body temperature. When it is hot, it consumes heat energy through sweating and uses water evaporation to lower the body temperature. As a lubricant for joints, muscles and body cavities, water can protect tissues and organs. Drinking water is the main water source for rabbits. It is reported that rabbits need 12 ~ 16g/ day per kilogram of live weight. The smaller the rabbit is, the more water it needs. When the temperature is 15 ~ 25℃, the daily water consumption of rabbits is 100 ml when the live weight is 0.5 kg, 330 ml when it is 3 kg and 400 ml when it is 4 kg. 2.0 ~ 2.5 liters for 40 ~ 50-day-old female rabbits. The water consumption of rabbits is generally 2.0 ~ 2.5 times that of hay, and it is about 4 times in summer. Breast-feeding mothers and young rabbits drink more water.
All kinds of feeds contain water, such as 70% ~ 95% of green feed, 10% ~ 14% of grain, 10% of cake and 12% ~ 20% of coarse feed, which are also important sources of water for rabbits. Water is absolutely indispensable for rabbits to maintain their lives. When hungry, rabbits can consume glycogen, fat and protein to maintain their lives and even lose 40% of their body weight. However, when rabbits lose 5% water, there will be serious thirst, loss of appetite, weakened digestion and decreased disease resistance. When 10% water is lost, it will cause serious metabolic disorder and destroy the physiological process. The metabolic disorder caused by water shortage will damage the health of rabbits and seriously damage their productivity. The growth and development of young rabbits are slow, the weight gain is slow, the milk yield of female rabbits is reduced, and the growth rate of rabbit hair is reduced. When the rabbit loses 20% water, it will lead to death. Rabbits have the ability to adjust the amount of water they drink according to their own needs, so make sure they drink freely. Some people think that rabbits drink too much water and have diarrhea easily. This view is one-sided, but water supply should ensure water hygiene and meet drinking water standards.
Food:
Rabbits are almost entirely herbivores. I like carrots, potatoes, radish leaves and other vegetables, as well as dandelion and plantain.
Rabbits, like other animals, will die without drinking water. However, because vegetables and weeds containing a lot of water were fed before, these foods will affect the health of the stomach and cause diarrhea. Wet cages make rabbits sick easily, which is why rabbits can't drink water. If dry artificial feed is the staple food, they certainly need to drink water.
Rabbit feces are usually hard round black particles, and occasionally soft feces appear. If you don't pay attention, rabbits may eat these soft feces immediately.
These soft feces contain indigestible plant fibers in food, which are eaten into the stomach again, absorb the nutrients needed by the body, turn into round feces, and are excreted. If you don't eat these feces, some rabbits may die of malnutrition.
Cage:
On average, cages of about 50-60 cm on each side can keep 1-2 rabbits.
Wooden boards are used at the bottom of the cage to remove pollution and avoid excessive humidity in the cage. It is best to use barbed wire on the front and side to make the cage well ventilated.
Others:
Rabbits can't stand the heat and humidity. If they are kept outdoors, the death rate will increase in plum rain and hot summer. If you keep it indoors, be careful not to put the cage in a closed room or a balcony that will be exposed to the sun when you go out in summer. About 8 months after birth, the rabbit's sexual development is mature, and the mother rabbit is restless, which is a sign of estrus. After mating, the male rabbit will scream and fall into a coma.
The female rabbit should be separated from the male rabbit after pregnancy. Spread straw or other hay in the cage, enclose the cage with cloth, and try not to touch it, so that the mother rabbit can be quiet and stable. The mother rabbit will pluck the hair from her abdomen to make a nest.
From pregnancy to delivery, the female rabbit will become very neurotic and overexposed. A mother rabbit may bite her master or kill her own baby rabbit.
A fetus can give birth to 5-6 rabbits. When food or drinking water is insufficient, the mother rabbit may eat the rabbit, so the amount provided should be slightly more than usual. After about 30 days, the rabbit can leave the nest. At this time, the rabbit can leave the mother rabbit and feed it with bread and soft vegetables soaked in milk, which is easy to tame.
If care is difficult, rabbits can be separated from the mother rabbits when they can eat the food of adult rabbits.
First of all, create a warm home for the bunny.
1, cage:
Cages are very important to rabbits, and rabbit cages on the market are generally expensive. Want an affordable and cheap rabbit nest, buy a dog cage! Put a blanket on one side of the dog cage, and Tutu will feel empty on the other side without a blanket! !
2. Drinking machine:
If you put a bowl full of water in a cage, Tutu will knock it over. At this time, you need a ball kettle, which can be put in a cage and is not expensive! !
3. Vegetable basin:
Put the rabbit's food in! !
4. Feed rack:
Put tutu's grass in it, which is not available in the market, and you can make it yourself! !
5. Pull the rope:
Tutu can take it to play outside! !
Second, about the diet of rabbits:
1, rabbit food:
There are all kinds of rabbit food in the market, and the price remains around 25 yuan. Here, I recommend a few to rabbit friends: Vita rabbit food (my preserved eggs eat this, which is very good and highly recommended), Ai Bo and Dr. Rabbit.
2. Feed:
Forage is very important for rabbits, which can promote intestinal digestion and prevent many diseases (such as hairball disease). (Recommended one: Versailles forage, compressed packaging, easy to carry, a bag of various forage to ensure balanced nutrition. )
3. Vegetables:
Radish and vegetables have their own tastes, but they must be washed and dried! !
