Sometimes, a breeder told the author that his female rex rabbit had a miscarriage more than 20 days after she became pregnant, and then she was bred again and again, but she still had an abortion. Check the feed and found no problems, and did not let the female rabbit drink cold water. According to the author's understanding, the female rex rabbit raised by this breeder was the first mating at the age of 5 months. At that time, the weight of the rabbit was 2.2 kg. The abortion occurred more than 20 days after the rabbit became pregnant, and then the rabbit was blood matched. Miscarriage, followed by blood matching. For this reason, the author suggests that do not give blood to female rabbits, but to increase nutrition and strengthen nursing, so that female rabbits can recover their physique and achieve proper body condition before breeding.
rabbit causes of miscarriage:
Generally, the sexual maturity of Rex rabbits is 3.5 to 4 months old. Although it has reached sexual maturity and has the ability to reproduce offspring, it does not mean that it has reached the right age for breeding, and it must be bred immediately, because various parts of the rabbit body are still in the stage of continued growth and development. If the breeding is premature, it will not only affect its own growth and development, but also affect the offspring. Under normal feeding and management conditions, the first mating should be mastered at the age of 5 to 6 months and the weight is about 3 kg. The female rabbit raised by this breeder participated in the breeding before the breeding season, and the organs were not yet mature, resulting in miscarriage. At this time, the blood matching will make it worse for the already poor physique, and it is not surprising that another miscarriage occurs.
