Feeding technology bamboo rats like to be in a quiet, clean, dry, light appropriate, fresh air environment, with more frequent activities at night. Its activity pattern can be divided into activity cycle and rest cycle. Its nature likes warmth, living temperature is -8 - 35 ℃, the optimal temperature is 8-28 ℃. Like to hide in the corner of the light is very weak, if placed in the direct sun, it will run, seemingly restless. When people blow to it, immediately reveal the sharp and thick incisors, at the same time issued a "hoo hoo -" chirping demonstration. Under artificial rearing conditions, 4-5 months old, weighing more than lkg, sexual maturity begins, and after 6 months of age, breeding is carried out, generally breeding more than 100 per year. Young rats raised 3 months weight up to 0.75kg, 5 months up to 1kg, the largest 2-3kg.1.1 enclosure empty rooms, cellars, air raid shelters can be breeding, or brick 1.2X1.0x0.8m enclosure, brick partitioned into two sheds, the wall between the wall to leave a mouth, a room to do the inner room, the other to do the feeding ground. Groups of 5 pairs / square meter, can also be caged. 1.2 young rats refers to the age of 3 months after the milk within the bamboo rat. They need to be fed fresh, easily digestible, nutrient-rich feed. Such as carrots, sweet potatoes, bamboo shoots. Melon skin and other juicy feed, as well as corn, bran, dry bread and other concentrates. At the same time, fish meal, bone meal, salt, vitamins, growth factors are added to the diet to improve feed digestibility and promote the growth and development of young rats. Food type must be kept relatively stable, if there is a change, there should be a transition period. Young rats should be fed 14-17g per day, twice a day, less in the morning and more in the afternoon. According to the weight of young rats, physical strength and weakness of the pool feeding, 4-5 per cage. Weak ones should be fed separately to promote the recovery of young rats.1.3 Adult ratsAdult rats have strong disease resistance, fast growth and development, and weigh 1.2-1.5kg. They should be fed regularly, once in the morning and once in the evening, with 150-200g of straw and 15-20g of concentrates per day, and there is no need to change the basic diet all year round, but there should be a transition period if the diet is changed. Adult rats have fast growing teeth, so you need to put a bamboo pole or hardwood bar in the cage for them to grind their teeth. Every day, check whether the droppings of bamboo rats have a smooth surface and are in the form of granules, as if they are medicinal capsules. Pay attention to whether its fur color is shiny and its activity is lively, if there is any accident it should be dealt with promptly. Breeding males are required to be well-developed, weighing more than 1.3kg. They should have a straight back, be robust, have significant testicles, have a strong libido, tolerate rough feeding and do not fight. They should be quick in mating and have good semen quality. The quantity and quality of semen of the male breeder is related to nutrition, but it can't be fed too fat. The green roughage is bamboo leaves, bamboo stalks, bamboo shoots, corn stalks, reed stalks, sugar cane, carrots and so on. The diet is 55% corn meal, 20% bran, 15% peanut bran, 3% bone meal and 7% fish meal. Breeding rats are mated 1-2 times a day. The temperature is suitable in spring and fall, male rats have strong libido and good semen quality. The male rats have a high libido and good semen quality. Each time they are in heat for 1-3 days, they will be mated at night. The ratio of male to female breeding is 1:2-3, with 1:1 being better. Breeding females should have a high litter rate, strong motherhood, strong feeding power, and weigh more than 1.2kg. Because of the growth and development of young rats, adult female rats also need to raise young, so young rats and adult female rats diet formulations are as follows: ① corn 55%, bran 20%, peanut bran 15%, bone meal 3%, fish meal 7%. In addition, add 0.5% salt and growth factor to the total amount. ② bamboo meal 20%, 35% flour, corn meal 10%, 13% soybean cake meal, 17% wheat bran, 2% fish meal, bone meal 2%, salt 0.2%, sugar 0.8%. In addition, in each kilogram of feed supplement folic acid 1mg, niacin 20mg, zinc oxide 75mg, D-L methionine 400mg, potassium iodide 0.5mg, manganese sulfate 60mg, VA1500IU, VD31500IU, VB12 20mg, VB2 6mg, VE30mg. will be mixed with the above feed, kneaded into steamed bread or granular, and then sun-dried or dried. Feed bamboo rats. The pregnancy period of female rats is 60 days, and the feeds fed during this period should be clean, fresh, diversified and relatively stable. After pregnancy, female rats should be kept individually and the house should be kept clean with dry and soft bedding. Delivery time is 2-4 hours, and the fastest delivery time is 1-2 hours. 6-7 days before delivery, the nipples of female rats are exposed, their activities are reduced and they move slowly. Before giving birth, they make "cooing cooing cooing" sound from time to time. When giving birth, the litter, together with the fetus and placenta, will be produced together. The mother eats the fetus and placenta while giving birth, finally biting off the umbilical cord and cleaning the amniotic fluid on the litter. At this time, you can hear the rat's "ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-kai". 12 hours after the mother gives birth, she starts to nurse her litter. Avoid watching and touching during labor and keep the environment quiet to prevent the mother from eating or abandoning her litter. During the lactation period, you should not look at the nest of the female rat, clean the nest, or feed feed into the nest; the female rat will clean the nest on her own. During the lactation period, the mother rat should be fed with feed and the amount should be increased appropriately. At the same time, the mother rat should be given milk or soymilk every day in order to increase the amount of lactation of the mother rat. The mother will lactate more than 100g per day, which is enough to satisfy the milk requirement of her littermates.
The temperature of the house should be kept at 8-27℃. In summer, when the temperature is over 30℃ and it is particularly hot, we should use electric fan to blow the wind and pour water into the pool to cool down the temperature. Winter house temperature can not be lower than 5 ℃, it is best to maintain at about 15 ℃. Especially when the seasons change, it is necessary to prevent the wind from attacking the nest. Mice are born 20-30 days after the mother to feed, at this time to feed fresh and easy to digest bamboo sticks, grass stems, full-value pellet feed. At the same time, the mother is supplemented with minerals and various vitamins. 40-50 days of age, weaned and divided into nests, divided into 2-3 batches of nests, divided into 1 batch every 3-5 days. The survival rate of young rats is more than 98%
