Como la densidad y el tipo de suelo influyen en los rendimientos productivos y el bienestar de conejos de engorde en jaulas colectivas

Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of increasing stocking density (14, 16, 18 and 20 rabbits/m2) and type of floor (wire net vs slatted floor) on productive performance, animal reactivity, carcass and meat quality of 380 rabbits weaned at 28 d of age (live weight: 640 ± 48 g) and put in collective cages by 9 or 10. Increasing stocking density at 18 and, specially, 20 animals/m2 significantly reduced
