Breeding bucks for rabbit farms
At Granja Jordán we have 2 types of bucks which meet 2 different objectives within our rabbit farm. On the one hand, we have type C and type R meat bucks in order to optimise increasing the weight of litters thus improving food conversion rates.
On the other, we have GPV grandparent bucks with the main goal of crossing them with GPV grandparent does to produce parent does and thus achieve the necessary replacements (parent, cross-bred does).
Improving food conversion is vital for any rabbit farm, and ensuring quality in reproduction lines is fundamental. In this case, R and C bucks have the main objective of improving conversion rates. Nevertheless, the GPV grandparent bucks are used to produce parent or hybrid does.
The R meat buck is meant for breeding with the cross-bred or parent does to produce a litter of meat rabbits.
The C meat buck is meant for breeding with the cross-bred or parent does to produce a litter of meat rabbits with a brown coat and black eyes.
They are used to cross with the GPV grandparent does to produce replacement parent does (cross-bred or parent does).
Bio-safety transport service
Granja Jordán takes charge of distributing all its products, either using its own or subcontracted resources:
Breeding rabbits: distribution of animals in Spain and other European countries is carried out using our own transport, in a closed van with climate control and certified by the official veterinary services for transporting live animals. When larger quantities or longer distances are required, we work with a specialist transport company with wide experience transporting live animals. With this type of transport we guarantee that the animals travel in optimum conditions, ensuring good adaptation at the destination farm.
Semen doses: Semen doses are delivered by specialist urgent transport companies.We ensure the products are shipped in the late evening from our farm, perfectly packed to avoid any negative effects of cold or heat, delivering them to our clients early the next morning.
Bio-safety during transport: Granja Jordan has its own disinfection centre, authorised by the official veterinary service, to disinfect vehicles every time they perform a service for us.
Application of semen doses
We have a team of inseminators with over 18 years experience. This is a service we offer our clients and also rabbit farmer training so that they can do it themselves.
