Thank you. They will only typically nibble on a pellet or two but do nibble on hay. She is still feeding them at night but we have to get them out from under the shelf in the cage before we go to bed now that all 4 figured out they can hide under there and put them back in nest area so she will...
When can babies start eating pellets? I have 4 two week old lionhead rabbits that have already started eating hay and will occasionally nibble on pellets which I think is fine but not 100% sure. This was a surprise litter and our first. We have enjoyed watching them grow everyday and watching...
I will admit one of our males isn't all too friendly or well doesn't like to be held and likes to nibble but he does come to us for attention and to be pet. Our female stayed really nice even while pregnant, the only thing different was she quit giving us kisses and no sooner she had the babies...
I love lionheads but that is all we own. However I love all rabbits and if we could we would get a lop but we are at our limit on rabbits for now. We have a 1 year old female, and 2 males that are probably 9 or 10 months old and then have 4 babies that are 12 days old. They were a bit of a...
Thank you. It kept me busy trying to keep them covered and no sooner I would cover them two would pop their heads up and move around and manage to uncover them all. I can't believe how much they have grown and changed since last Sunday.
I had a surprise litter Sunday of 4 lionhead kits which our rabbits are all kept indoors. The babies are really adamant about wanting to be uncovered which keeps me busy throughout the day covering them up. Should I be worried and keep covering them or do you think they will be ok? They are in a...
Turbo (hubby named her and don't ask what two of the babies names are lol) has turned back into her sweet self again too. She was still rather sweet while pregnant but she had quit giving us kisses. Now that she had her babies we get kisses again.
I wouldn't worry too much about it. I had a surprise litter born Sunday. She frantically built her nest a couple hours before and timing put her at day 35. Like someone else said sometimes they will just build their nest right before they give birth.
She has been great with the babies with the nest she made in her cage. I had one baby wander out of it yesterday but I was home to find it seeing how it was making noises and move it back to nest. Today I made a nest box and moved her nest and babies into it but she kept trying to dump it over...
Ok I will do that. I have a new issue of mom trying to destroy her nest when I tried to move her nest into a nest box. She tried to keep dumping it over. I moved her nest back into her cage where it was and she was not a happy momma. Kept destroying it and messing with the babies. I took her out...
We had a surprise litter Sunday and I just moved nest into a nestbox in her cage but momma isnt happy and has tried to dump it. I have moved nest back into her cage and now she has destroyed it. I am in a panic mode.
