Grigorov, I., Thracian University, Stara Zagora (Bulgaria)
The determined period of pregnancy for the angora rabbits was not influenced by the systems of their rearing – covered premises or under shelter. The duration of the pregnancy period was from 30 to 33 days. The optimal number of born rabbits which one rabbit-mother could raise irrespective of the mode of rearing was 4-5. The milkiness of the angora rabbits was low. Till 90 days of age the male rabbits had higher live weight irrespecitve of the mode of rearing. A tendency for an increase in the wool production was observed for the angora rabbits reared in covered premises.
