Study on Dead Fetus of Rabbit

Dead fetus is one kind of reproductive disease of rabbit and the cause of the disease is complicated. The drug poisoning, toxin, machinery harms and metabolic obstacle made the fetus stop growing in the mother's body before birth. The difficult position and the fetus were too big and made fetus die. Owing to any sort of causes, this was very quick death after birth. Cold condition made the particularly weak fetus die in postpartum easily. Dies in postpartum do not belong to the scope of stillbirth, but since it was difficult to check out, in most condition the number was accounted within dead fetus rate falsely. Mould feed was major coarse feed, such as peanut hull, potato straw, peanut straw, dried hey, wheat bran, distillers and the high water content raw materials. Deficiency of nutrition, such as vitamin A, vitamin E, trace element iodine and selenium etc, could cause fetus dead. Inoculation, keeping rabbits in a sanitary condition, having the pharmaceutical preventions and getting rid of illness are important for the rabbits to keep from the dead fetus.
