Most people, when raising rabbits, will consider raising a breed of rabbit, such as Angora rabbits, pendulous rabbits and so on. Pendulous rabbits are considered to be the more suitable price among these breeds of rabbits and are better looking, so there are more parents who raise pendulous rabbits. So what do we need to pay attention to in terms of feeding?
First of all, the diet of a pendulous rabbit needs to be prepared with plenty of clean, plain water. The food of the rabbit should be nutritionally balanced and well-matched. They like to eat vegetables and carrots, but they should not be fed this single food for a long time. Therefore, the food for pendulous rabbits should be an organic combination of vegetables, rabbit food and hay, and then be given to the pendulous rabbits. The pendulous rabbit does not have the concept of satiety, so avoid too much food that can lead to indigestion, which can seriously kill the pendulous rabbit.
The pendulous rabbit likes a dry and clean environment, so prepare a dry and ventilated place at home for the pendulous rabbit. Put a board or mat in the rabbit’s nest to prevent diseases such as foot dermatitis. The rabbits also like to be clean and the rabbit hutch should be cleaned regularly. The rabbit should have more than one hour of exercise every day. During the day, the rabbit is quiet and likes to be alone. The breeder should try to guide the rabbit to do exercise as much as possible, which is an effective way to avoid obesity. In order to develop good habits for a young pendulous rabbit that has just entered the home, breeders should train it. Teach the pendulous rabbit to defecate in a fixed place, to eat in a fixed place, etc.
The education of lop-eared rabbits may be difficult for some parents who are new to raising rabbits, because rabbits are not as humane as dogs and cats, so education can be a bit difficult, but parents do not have to be discouraged, perseverance will get you the results you want.
