First, when a female rabbit is not in estrus, male rabbits can be used to stimulate ovulation. A solution of sodium benzoate, which contains benzoic acid, is administered intramuscularly at a dose of 0.1 ml per rabbit. This treatment usually induces estrus within one day, allowing the female to be bred by a male. However, breeding at this stage should not result in pregnancy. After two days, the females are typically ready for quarantine.

Second, oxytocin is commonly used to induce labor in pregnant female rabbits. Most females will give birth around 30 days after mating. For those who are overdue, oxytocin can help stimulate contractions and speed up delivery. A dose of 3 to 4 units of oxytocin can be injected into the inner thigh muscle of a 31-day-pregnant rabbit. Delivery often occurs within 10 to 15 minutes, and some may even give birth as quickly as 2 minutes after the injection. It's important to note that oxytocin should not be used on females less than 30 days into their pregnancy.

Third, after the birth of a litter, it's generally unnecessary to dry the newborns’ mucus. Allowing the mother to clean them helps strengthen the bond between her and the kits. The act of nursing also promotes the release of prolactin, which supports maternal behavior. To enhance milk production, postpartum females can be fed small amounts of raw sesame seeds, black beans, and other nutrient-rich green feeds.

Fourth, the fat fertilizer method involves using tetracycline or terramycin feed powder to improve growth rates in young rabbits. The recommended dosage is 1 gram per day for 30-day-old pups, mixed into their morning feed. Every 10 days, the dose is increased by 1 gram. According to tests, drug-treated pups gained 5 to 10 grams more in weight daily compared to untreated ones. This method is effective in improving overall health and development.

Fifth, the pelvic method involves using thyroxine to promote faster hair growth, resulting in approximately 15% more fur. Adult rabbits are initially given 10 mg of thyroxine per day, mixed into their feed. Over time, the dosage is gradually increased, reaching a maximum of 40 mg by the 60th day. After peaking, the dose is slowly reduced and eventually stopped within 30 days. Some rabbits may show initial signs of restlessness, but this usually subsides within a week.
