Selection of Breeding Stook In Fox llanohing

(By Dr. C. K. Gunn, Dom. Experi- mental Fox Ranch. Summcrslue. P- E. I.)

Probably the most important pliJSC of fox lﬁlV-‘hlng llmcedlm? 15 the selection o.’ breeding stock in whlcll rm,- loliewulg points should be given special consideration.

their desire to mate readily. Poor meters may be used and an occas- ional litter obtained, but if pups from these litters are kept hen the character of poor mating abil- itvdmay be transmitted into the her .

(5) Color — A good blue black color is very important in the guard fur. The underfur should be clear and free from off color. Among shcd protected animals re- ceiving good furring rations, come strains of foxes will still show a rusty effect in the fur. which in these cases is apparently heredit- ary in origin. The best method in .selection for color is to retain 5 these animals that keep or hold ' their color well in outside pens

where protection fzom the elements

is limited.

t6» Avoid selecting foxes with curly or wavy fur _ This tendency is inherited and because such pelts are difficult to match in gar- ments they are considered undes- lrnble.

(7) Avoid selecting V necked animals — The silver should cut across the back of the fox at right angles to the long axis of the body, and the black coloration caused by absence oi silver should not run down the centre of the back in a V or U shape.

(Bl Avoid Rncliitic Animals. -- Rickets is a disease usually caused

i bv a lack of calciibn and vitamin D im the diet of growing fox pups l The softening and twisting of the

bony skeleton may give rise to a tieformed pelvis and this in turn. mar cause difficult delivery of pups. i rlt birth. i l t9) Avoid vixcns with a blocked}

or closed vagina — 1n purchasing or choosing vixens for brooding purposes. it is advisable to check than with a. glass

the vaginal cavity is o

deformed or cowl-infill?

(10) Good milking vixens — Sol ect vikens from 8 m! strains. Foxes like cows are variable as to their milking abilitly. and l good milking vixen usua y produ- ces strong growthy pups hat will in turn milk well. Poor milkers am a cause of small size in 50X PUP! and even losses amonB litters.

(11) Quiet tomperamentlsanother trait that should be taken into consideration in the choice of breeding stock. Tame animals that squeal and carry on, and animals which bark at the least provocat- ion are to be avoided. libretto/ole vixens are usually the ones that destzoy their young when any un- usual noises or happenings oocur in the ranch about whelping time.
