The first is homogenous matching. It is to select excellent male and female rabbits with the same characters, consistent performance, or similar breeding value to be matched in order to obtain similar excellent offspring. The more similar the matching parties are, the more likely it is that the common good quality be passed on to future generations to maintain and consolidate the good traits. For example, selecting the large male and female rabbits with good fur quality for mating can further stabilize and consolidate the genetic quality of the importance of the weight and fur quality of rabbits.
The second is a heterogeneous match. It can be divided into two cases. The first is to select male and female rabbits with different superior traits to match each other in order to combine the two traits so as to obtain offspring with both parents' different advantages. For example, selecting a long-haired and hairy rabbit matches the purpose. Another example is that selecting medium-sized rabbits with high hair density and matching the rabbits with large hair density but with a large body size brings together fine hairy and large-sized traits that can improve fur quality in offspring. The second is to select the same trait but good or bad, to correct the bad traits with good traits, in order to achieve greater improvement and improvement of future generations. For example, some rex rabbits are thin and evenly distributed, while others are hairy but poorly homogenous. After mating by heterogeneity, hairy and evenly homozygous offspring can be obtained.
The third is age matching. The suitable modes of adoption include young male rabbits, young female rabbits, outstanding old male rabbits, young female rabbits, young male rabbits, young female rabbits, young male rabbits, young female rabbits, and young male rabbits and old female rabbits.
The fourth is related selection. Also known as pro-community, it is the abbreviation for close-parent mating or kinship mating. It refers to mating between two parents whose total number of generations of common ancestors does not exceed six generations. This method is mostly used in rabbit breeding. Inbreeding is prone to decline, such as decreased offspring resistance and viability, offspring mortality during embryonic or postnatal periods, appearance of malformed rabbits, slow growth, and reduced productivity and productivity. Use less on rabbits.
