In recent years, with the diversification of breeds, many farmers are no longer limited to breeding traditional breeds, and many have begun to breed some emerging breeds, such as long-haired rabbits. The breeding cost of long-haired rabbits is very low, but the market demand for fur is very large, so many farmers have spotted this breed. However, it is not easy to breed long-haired rabbits. Let's learn its breeding techniques.

　　 1. Variety selection

The choice of long-haired rabbit breeds directly determines the subsequent breeding income of farmers. When choosing long-haired rabbits, we usually choose those with high quality and yield of fur. At the same time, we must choose rabbits with strong resistance and rarely get sick. Such a long-haired rabbit is considered a good breed. And in the process of breeding rabbits, we need to change the breeds of rabbits regularly, because breeding between close relatives will greatly affect the quality of rabbits.

　　2, breeding environment

　　 Long-haired rabbits have higher requirements for breeding environment. Generally, rabbit houses should be kept dry and ventilated. Friends who have bred rabbits should know that the smell of rabbits is very heavy because its sweat glands are underdeveloped and it is not easy to sweat.

　　 Rabbits are generally bred in the north because the temperature in the north is relatively low, which is more suitable for the environment temperature for rabbits. When we breed long-haired rabbits, we must also pay attention to temperature control. The temperature of the rabbit house should not exceed 35 degrees. The temperature of breeding adult rabbits should be controlled at about 20 degrees. When raising young rabbits, the temperature can be slightly higher, but it should not exceed 30 degrees.

　　3, scientific feeding

　　In order to obtain better quality rabbit fur, daily feeding is very important. Among them, the grass the rabbits must be fed with high quality, the humidity should not be too high, and the mold should not occur. Also, when we feed the rabbit green fodder, we must also pay attention to adding some concentrated fodder so that the rabbit hair can grow well.

　　 4. Disease prevention

　　 Because rabbits are raised in groups, once a rabbit is infected, it is easy to infect other rabbits, so farmers must take disease prevention work in advance. Generally, after weaning of long-haired rabbits, the vaccine is given once, and when the long-haired rabbits are 60 days old, the vaccine is also given again. If the preventive measures are taken, long-haired rabbits can be better raised.

　　 5. Collect rabbit fur

　　 The main source of income from long-haired rabbit breeding is the sale of rabbit fur. Because the market has higher requirements for rabbit fur, we should pay attention to some shearing techniques when collecting rabbit fur. It should be noted that the methods of shearing are different at different stages. So we have to learn the method of shearing, and then press to shear.

　　 The above is the method and precautions for farming long-haired rabbits in rural areas, I hope it will be helpful to you.
