Rabbits of medicinal materials are a newly developed breed of rabbits that have been successfully cultivated in China for various purposes, including medical, experimental, cosmetic, and meat production. These rabbits are highly valued for their multiple benefits: medical experts have extracted numerous drugs and vaccines from their bodies; their meat is considered a nutritious and delicious food, free from pollution; and their skin has rejuvenating properties, helping to improve health, extend lifespan, and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. As a result, they are widely appreciated by both domestic and international consumers.
These rabbits are also economically beneficial due to their ability to thrive on roughage, fast growth, high reproduction rates, and strong profitability. Live rabbits have long been exported to Japan, where they enjoy a strong market demand and promising prospects. The following are the key techniques for raising these rabbits effectively.
First, when nursing does and their young are born, they should be placed in farrowing boxes lined with soft hay or cotton. If the mother doesn't pull out her fur, it's necessary to assist by removing hair around the abdomen and placing her in the box. During birth, it's best to stay nearby. Immediately after delivery, provide warm, light salt water (0.5–1%) and help the pups nurse. If there are too many offspring, some can be transferred to a younger litter, and the mother’s urine can be used to mark the new litter to prevent rejection. Alternatively, a syringe with a bicycle valve core can be used to feed milk or goat’s milk. Puppies aged 20 days can begin eating easily digestible, high-quality mixed concentrates.
The feeding formula for lactating does includes: 20% corn, 5% sorghum, 12% peanut cake, 30% peanut meal, 10% bean cake, 18% wheat bran, 0.5% salt, and 4.5% premix, processed into pellets. Each doe should receive 150–250 grams daily, along with free access to water. Additionally, 3–5 cooked and chopped eggs should be added each day.
Second, weaning puppies must be done gradually. From 30–35 days old, reduce the number of breastfeeding sessions and introduce easily digestible mixed concentrates. Feed them more frequently but in smaller amounts—about six times a day—and add antibiotics like olaquindox to boost immunity.
Third, for young rabbits aged 18–20 days, they start shedding their down and grow rapidly. Their diet should include 15% soybean cake, 25% corn, 15% wheat bran, 30% peanut meal, 10% peanut cake, 0.5% salt, and 4.5% premix, processed into pellets. Daily intake should be 30–50 grams, with free access to water.
Fourth, for young rabbits aged 3–5 months, the diet formula is: 14% soybean cake, 20% corn, 17% bran, 11% peanut cake, 30% peanut meal, 4% sorghum, 0.5% salt, and 3.5% premix. Pellets should be fed at 60–100 grams per day.
Fifth, for breeding rabbits aged 5–6 months, males and females should be kept separate to avoid early mating. Feed them three times a day with a formula of 8% bean cake, 19% corn, 18% wheat bran, 40% peanut meal, 5% sorghum, 6% peanut cake, 0.5% salt, and 3.5% premix. Daily intake is 80–120 grams.
Sixth, for adult rabbits aged 7–8 months, which weigh about 5 kg, ensure the cage temperature stays between 5–10°C in winter. Ten days before breeding, give vitamin E1 tablets daily. The feed formula includes rabbit-specific pellets, with a daily amount of 100–150 grams.
Seventh, male rabbits aged 7–8 months should follow the adult diet during non-breeding periods. During breeding, use a formula of 15% bean cake, 10% peanut cake, 35% peanut meal, 15% corn, 20% wheat bran, 1% salt, and 4% premix. They should receive 100–180 grams daily, along with sufficient water and vitamin E1 tablets.
Eighth, pregnant does require a higher protein diet. Avoid spoiled, frozen, or contaminated feed, and do not handle or scare them to prevent miscarriage. The formula includes 15% soybean cake, 4% premix, 10% peanut cake, 31% peanut meal, 20% corn, 19% wheat bran, 1% salt, and is processed into pellets. Daily feed should be 110–200 grams.
Ninth, for breeding and export, rabbits must meet Japanese import standards: they must be healthy, disease-free, white-brown in color, and weigh between 2.65–2.75 kg after being held for 24 hours. These conditions ensure their eligibility for export.
Environmentally friendly lubricants, also known as environmentally acceptable lubricants, must have the following characteristics: first, it has good lubrication performance, can reduce environmental pollution by saving energy; Second, the product itself is harmless to the environment and has little impact; Third, this product can be biodegradable, and can be decomposed into simple CO2 and water, which can be absorbed by the environment without any harm.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines environmentally friendly lubricants as ultimately biodegradable, low toxic and non-bioaccumulative.
