The life span of a dwarf rabbit is generally about eight years. As one of the longest-lived rabbit species in the world, a well-fed dwarf rabbit can live to be about sixteen years old.
First of all, Bigger Mi Tu is a cross between rabbits from Britain and the United States. Because these rabbits have been active in the wild for a long time, they carry a lot of virus antibodies, so they are passed on to dwarf rabbits, so the incidence of dwarf rabbits is much lower, so their life expectancy is longer.
Secondly, Pygmy Mi Tu is very small. Because of this, they don't eat as much as other rabbits, so they don't need much food, so their life span is much longer. Finally, pygmy rabbits are generally easy to feed. If they are provided with shelter and food, they can survive.
Matters needing attention in raising dwarf rabbits
1. Short rabbits should be mainly hay, such as ladder grass, alfalfa, etc., and some rabbit food can be properly fed. Rabbit food is more convenient and delicious.
2. In drinking water, it is necessary to provide sufficient water sources, such as boiled water or purified water, and vegetables need to be washed and drained before feeding.
3. The place where the dwarf rabbit lives should be kept clean, and the living environment should be kept clean, dry and ventilated to prevent the growth of bacteria and affect the health of the rabbit.
4. Don't scratch your ears when playing with the bunny. The ears of dwarf rabbits are covered with nerves and blood vessels, and the ears are very fragile organs for them.
