The ideal weight of all kinds of rabbits, the ideal weight of Dutch dwarf rabbits

Other small rabbits or rabbit breeds have no internationally recognized ideal weight standard. If you think your rabbit is too fat or too thin, you can control it reasonably by the following methods:

Second, how can rabbits control their weight if they are too fat?

1. For obese rabbits, the owner can choose to feed rabbit food with high fiber and low protein. At present, there is also rabbit food specially for obese rabbits on the market, which is very suitable for obese rabbits.

2. It is forbidden to feed rabbits with oats and rabbit food with high starch content, such as oat grass, sweet potato leaves, oatmeal pieces, etc. These foods will make rabbits fatter, and the owner needs to control the supply of these foods. In addition, some fruits are also high in calories, so we should pay attention to controlling feeding.

3. Keep feeding rabbits regularly and quantitatively every day, and the rabbits must eat reasonably. Adult rabbits are fed once in the morning and once in the evening, and only grass and water are provided at other times.

4. Let rabbits exercise regularly every day. The owner shouldn't keep the rabbit in a cage all day. Rabbits in cages either eat or sleep, which easily leads to obesity and depression. Therefore, the owner needs to release the rabbit for a period of time every day, about 1 hour, but be careful not to let the rabbit get in close contact with stray animals, and don't let the rabbit get into the depths of the grass, otherwise it will easily catch fleas and other parasites.

Third, how can rabbits gain weight scientifically if they are too thin?

1. There are parasites in rabbits to absorb its nutrition. Whether there are parasites or not can be determined by doing stool tests on rabbits.

2. If it is caused by insufficient nutrition intake, the owner should give it some rabbit food with good quality, and give it more appropriately, which can be fed at 3%-5% of the rabbit's weight.

3. For adult rabbits, in addition to feeding them grass, we can also feed some grass such as alfalfa and ryegrass appropriately to make the grass fatten, but we must not let rabbits eat more. Eating too much of these grasses will make rabbits obese and lead to urinary calcium.
