Rabbit Diseases, Breeding and Child Care

Diseases:
All animals have some diseases but rabbit has comparatively less evil. It likes to stay on clean place. So its house should always be neat and clean. If the room temperature is more than 290C then male rabbit become infertile. Furthermore rabbit sick from coccidiosis, pasteurellosis, and neck edema etc. general diseases. Sick rabbit looks eyes pale, ears are not erect, and hair looks dry and rough, apathy shows in taking food and water, including increased body temperature and low running symptoms. Always keeping the house clean all diseases can be prevented.
Breeding:
Usually 5 – 6 months age rabbit make evidence of generative. A pregnant rabbit give forth children in 28 – 34 days. And its weight becomes 2% of its mother’s body weight. Lactation period is 6 – 8 weeks. At a time it gives 2 – 8 children. And it can give forth again after one month. 3 – 4 female rabbit can be kept with a male rabbit at the reproductive time. But it a good idea is to keep separation of pregnant rabbit with male rabbit.

Child Care:
So small animal give forth 6 – 8 children at a time so its children are so small in size and should special care for the first 10 days. For example – to help sucking milk from her mother, if needed milk with feeder, rice splash, biscuit with milk. We have to catch the children with soft cloth always.
