The aim of the experiment was to examine effect group size and stocking density on productive, carcass meat quality traits. trial conducted using 230 Pannon white rabbits weaned at 5 weeks reared until age 11 weeks. Seven groups were formed with different cage/pen sizes (group size) densities: SC16=small cage (0.12 m2), 16 rabbits/m2 (2 rabbits/cage); LC16=large (0.50 (8 LC12=large cage, 12 (6 SP16=small pen (0.86 (13 SP12=small pen, (10 LP16=large (1.72 (26 LP12=large (20 rabbits/cage)....
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect dietary supplementation with spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) or/and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) on total tract apparent digestibility nutrients and performance growing rabbits. At weaning (5 wk age) rabbits were randomly allotted 7 groups (42 rabbits/group, 3 rabbits/cage). Rabbits in control group (C-C) received a pelleted feed throughout experiment (5-11 without any (crude protein: 176 g CP/kg, neutral detergent fibre: 325 NDF/kg). In other...
Although rabbit does are generally single housed on farms worldwide, it has been suggested by some specialists and recommendation of organic production systems that group housing is more comfortable similar to the living conditions European wild rabbits. The aim this experiment was compare single-caged (S) group-housed (G). S were in commercial cages (floor area 0.32 m2 0.3 m high). In treatment G, four one buck pens measuring 7.7 (half floor deep litter other half plastic slat), with nest...
The aim of the experiment was to study effect dam and sire genotypes on production slaughter performance growing rabbits. carried out at Kaposvár University. Pannon White (PW) maternal line (M) does were inseminated with sperm PW, M, large body (LB), terminal Hycole hybrid (H), or colored (CL) bucks. mature size CL medium. LB H large. Only PW rabbits selected for carcass traits based computer tomograph (CT) scanning data. (n = 320) weaned age 5 wk housed in a closed climate-controlled...
In this study, the rabbit breeding programme conducted at Kaposvár University is extensively discussed. Population history and recorded traits, creation of different synthetic lines, evolution their selection criteria, stimation genetic parameters trends are main elements described. The (Pannon programme) operated with 1 maternal line 2 paternal lines. At present Ka) selected for number kits born alive, while lines pre-selected litter weight White) average daily gain terminal line),...
<p>The aim of this study was to determine the effect live yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on growth performance, caecal ecosystem and overall health growing rabbits. A control diet formulated (crude protein: 15.9%; neutral detergent fibre: 31.6%) another obtained by supplementing with 1 g (6.5×109 colony-forming units) per kg diet. Ninety 35-d old rabbits were allotted into 3 groups: TT (rabbits offered supplemented from 17 d age onwards), CT 35 d) CC fed non-supplemented diet). Body...
Summary The present experiment tested a dietary supplementation with linseed oil and selenium to growing rabbits. basal diet (B) contained 3% sunflower oil, while it was substituted in the experimental feed (S). (Se) content of two diets 0.10 vs. 0.46 mg/kg. Rabbits were fed B from age 18 days. One group until 11 weeks (group B), whereas groups S for 1, 2, 3 or 4 (groups S1, S2, S3 S4, respectively), before slaughtering (11 age). Live performance carcass traits rabbits, fatty acid ( FA )...
The aims of the current research were to evaluate quality pedigree, generation interval, gene origin, inbreeding, and effective population size Pannon White rabbit breeding population. pedigree information was supplied by experimental farm Hungarian University Agriculture Life Sciences, who is responsible for maintenance breed. studbook data registered animals up 2022 analysed. active in chosen as reference study. complete equivalent 12.11 whereas average maximum generations 39.15 All stock...
The objective of the study was to compare production and welfare rabbit does their kits housed in various types cages. Female rabbits were randomly allocated four groups with following cage types: CN: common wire-mesh flat-deck cage, without footrest; CF: similar CN but plastic ECWP: enlarged platform; ECPP: extra plastic-mesh platform. All inseminated on same day, 11 days after kindlings. Reproductive performance evaluated during first five consecutive Severity sore hocks scored at each...
Pannon White (n=12) male rabbits (weight: 4050 to 4500 g, age: 9 months) received 2 ml of a suspension containing purified T-2 toxin by gavage for 3 days. The daily intake was 4 mg/animal (0.78 0.99 mg/kg body weight (BW)). Control animals toxin-free Since feed-refusal effect observed on the second day after administration, group bucks (n=10) were kept as controls (no treatment) but restricted feeding schedule, that is, same amount feed provided them consumed exposed animals. On 51...
The aim of this study was to compare the effect and duration dietary inclusion 5% spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) and/or 3% thyme (Thymus vulgaris) on growing rabbit carcass composition, meat bone rheological traits, vitamin B12 content Longissimus dorsi (LD) meat. involved 294 maternal line rabbits from Pannon breeding programme. At weaning (5 wk), animals were randomly divided by treatment into 7 groups 42 each. A control group (C-C) received a pellet with no supplementation throughout...
