Carr's Rabbit breeding and rearing regimeHOW CAN YOU BREED WONDERFULLY STRONG YOUNGSTERS TIME AFTER TIME With a natural immune system and condition any show man would be proud of: .......BY USING the system that the professional showmen and many successful breeding studs use. THE CARR'S breeding program The aims of the program: 1.To achieve as near 100% fertility to produce fully reared youngsters. 2.To bring those youngsters on with no health problems at all. 3.To produce strong, weaned youngsters that are visibly superior than in previous years. 4.To keep those youngsters healthy and growing steadily past the critical 16 week stage 5.To keep the program as simple as possible. 6.To breed youngsters that will give you great pleasure. Lets have a look at how we can achieve these aims. To achieve near 100% fertility. Starts with the fertility of the parents. Many breeders know that building the fertility near to breeding is essential, but many only concentrate on the does and donít give the bucks a second thought, This is totally wrong ,both parents need to be in excellent breeding condition both on the outside and on the inside to produce healthy eggs and sperm. This is simply achieved by using Carr's ENTRACARE on the feed of the parents or alternatively in their water supply, the active natural plant extract in ENTRACARE clears the gut of harmful pathogens, including coccidiosis,E.Coli , Salmonella and even intestinal worms. The intestine of the rabbit has an intestinal mucosa, this is healthy and pink in a healthy animal,but when it becomes infested with pathogens it can turn to a grey sticky layer .The pathogens live , feed and breed in it, it is a perfect habitat for them to thrive, and once they start to multiply in great numbers the result is that they will drag the rabbit down ,to point where their own immune system cannot cope and the rabbit will eventually die. ENTRACARE lifts this layer away and it is passed out with the faeces , flushing with it the pathogens, over time with continued use the gut is cleared of these harmful pathogens and the rabbits natural immune system is restored, This part of the program has now sorted out the inside problems of the rabbit, and this will now lead to improved outside appearance i.e. better fur quality, clear eyes, warm feet due to improved circulation. The droppings of the rabbit will now take on a firm consistency a tell tale sign that everything in the gut is as it should be. At around six weeks before breeding Fertility gold can be added to ,a high long fiber mix with a little protein content two or three times a week , this is very high in natural vitamin E and this will heighten the fertility levels in the rabbits ,remember to give to both does and bucks. this should be used during breeding and rearing with the ENTRACARE,and can be mixed with the ENTRACARE, Adding NATRAVIT,a natural multivitamin at this stage will also increase the vitamin levels within the parents and this can also be mixed with the ENTRACARE and Fertility Gold and should be given three times a week also, this blend should also be used after the birth as the ingested vitamins and essential oils in the Entracare will be present in the mothers milk during the rearing period .. You will also notice that during the youngsters life so far the droppings will have remained solid, this shows that everything is fine in the gut and that the food you are feeding is being utilized and converted to muscle in an efficient way. Keeping the youngsters in top condition and growing steadily is now of utmost importance, do not stress them unduly ,keep feeding times and exercise times constant. This system of breeding and rearing is a very simple one that takes the minimum of effort and memory. I am sure that you will be very pleased with the system . To simplify the system; 1,Give your rabbits Entracare in the feed or alternatively in the water to clear the gut of harmful pathogens . 2,Administer ENTRACARE +Natravit +Supreme fertility Gold, in the feed to both does and bucks to bring them into breeding condition prior to pairing. ENTRACARE everyday and Natravit and Supreme fertility gold three times a week. This is best done six week prior to pairing 3.Continue to use this combination until the youngsters are two weeks weaned. Then stop using the Supreme fertility gold and carry on with the ENTRACARE and Natravit This system will produce youngsters that look and feel like wonderful and you will have used all totally natural plant extracts. And their immune system will be strong and effective in their protection PRODUCTS AND PRICES:Entracare aqua for adding to the water supply for sorting out the digestive tract Entracare Original for adding to the feed for sorting out the digestive tract Natravit. Natural multi vitamin for fantastic coat and skin condition Fertility Gold for improving fertility in breeding stock. Aniseed oil for adding to feed to entice fussy eaters to feed. Enviromenth a powerful emulsion blend of six essential oils for keeping the rabbit room free of airborne viruses and for easy breathing and a wonderful minty smell Rabbit ProductsThe rabbit has a very sensetive digestion tract.some people say it is similar to that of a horse,they suffer from a condition called colic which can be fatal,rabbits suffer from various conditions in the digestion tract that can also lead to death.the secret in rabbit keeping is to keep the gut in a good condition and keep it moving,if it slows down or stops then this is when the major problems occur.This slowing is called stacis,and basically what happens is that food trapped in the gut is then colonised by pathogens of various types ,these are always found in the gut as part of its natural flora ,there are good pathogens and bad pathogen,the good guys and the bad guys.the good guys keep the bad guys levels down and a happy co-existance is acheived .when stacis occurs the bad guys numbers increase because the gut has slowed and they have much more time to reproduce before they are pushed out as faeces.they reproduce at an alarming rate and quickly wipe out the good guys, They are then in an enviroment with little or no competition and being an organism the produce waste products,these are usually seen as toxins which are poisonous and or gas which is known as bloat.both of these conditions can kill rabbits quickly.with in hours in most cases. Prevention is far better than a cure,a suitable long fibre diet is essential,in the wild rabbirs eat long fibre all the time they occasionally eat small grains if there is a low supply of fibre but this is not the norm.high protein diets of grains is not a natural diet for a rabbit,so it is best not to feed this all the time,a small amount with plenty of long fibre,stalky hay etc is best. be sure that the hay is of the best quality,use your nose if it smells fusty or has visible mould or spores or is a yellowish colour then don't feeds it ,the mould can cause all sorts of problems in the gut and in their air ways,the respiritory tract. Once you have found a feeding regime that suits the rabbit stick to it and stick to the same food,altering food quickly can lead to digestion problems and enteritis,(squits) if you have to change the food do it over a period of a few days and monitor the rabbits closely. ENTRACARE for RABBITS . Available for the feed or for adding to water. Entracare Aqua for adding to water Entracare for adding to the feeds Both of these products contain oreganum oil which derives from a naturally occuring herb from the middle mediterrainian countries where the common rabbit originated before being imported by the romans into this country 2000 years ago.Oreganum is one of the oldest known beneficial herbs and was part of everyday medicine in the greek and roman periods,its beneficial anti bachterial and antifungal properties are again just being realised.we have been producing this product for over 10 years,and have a customer data base that runs into the teens of thousands it is that effective. HOW ENTRACARE/OREGANUM WORKS In the intestines of all animals,birds and even humans there is a mucus lining.this is called the intestinal mucosa.it is a naturally occuring layre that is produced constantly through the life of the animal.this layre is grey and warm and it it can become a breeding and feeding ground for many stomach pathogens,ie ecoli,coccidiosis salmonella etc,left alone and in a situation that is beneficial to their reproduction ie stacis or a collaps of good bacteria, the pathogens can multiply quickly to many millions.having the effect of dragging the animal down, to, in many cases death, The action of oreganum/Entracare is to losen this intestinal mucosa and lift it away from the intestine,it is then passed out in the faeces,flushing with it all the pathogens that are present in the mucosa.by using the oreganum/Entracare continually they mucosa that is always being produce is lifted and passed all the time.the pathogen counts go right down and the animal improves in health because it is no longer fighting and feeding the pathogen population ,The good bacteria then have a chance to multiply and an improved immune system is hopefully acheived.
One of many success stories relating to rabbits is that of Mr Robert Furniss. see above, a breeder or rabbits for over 30 years.who without any notice what so ever was hit by a mystery stomach problem in his rabbits,at a loss to know what to do and having been to his vet with no succes he contacted Lou Bevan a friend and a very succesful breeder.Mr bevan had been using Entracare for over 2 years and had found it keep his rabbits clear of enteritis type problems all that time,he gave some to Robert and after using it for just one day he could see that they were on the mend. before receiving the Entracre Robert lost 30 rabbit in just a few days.his best rabbit had contracted the problem and had lost a vast amount of weight."it had gone down to 6 ounces" said Robert," as soon as I started to use the Entracare it started to eat hay again and it survived to tell the tale" as can be seen in the photo.Robert gave some to Dave Gallagher a show judge who was having similar problems and soon the news was spreading about Entracare and it's wonderful properties.Carr's would like to thank Mr Bevan,Mr Furniss and Mr Gallagher for allowing themselves to be used in this article.
