1. When a rabbit suffers from hypoglycemia, the owner should immediately feed the rabbit with glucose, milk replacer or nutrient solution.

2. Take measures to keep warm, and then gently massage its limbs.

3. When it gets better, you can give it some rabbit food, hay and other foods. You should also pay attention to prevention and feed more foods with high nutritional value.

How to prevent hypoglycemia in rabbits

1. Properly prepare rabbit feed to ensure balanced nutrition of rabbits. For rabbits that have insufficient breast milk and are weaned too early, owners can use goat milk to feed them to meet the nutritional needs of the growth and development of the rabbits.

2. The amount of rabbit feeding should be reasonably controlled. When feeding, if the rabbit does not show signs of urgency, and its digestion and defecation are normal, and there is no mushy stool or foreign matter in the feces, then it means that the feeding amount is enough, or it can be reduced appropriately.

3. For young rabbits, owners should pay attention to feeding them with mother rabbit’s milk. For young rabbits that have not been weaned recently, they need to feed them with alfalfa and young rabbit food. For rabbits under the age of one month, owners should pay more attention to preventing hypoglycemia.
