How will i know when labour starts?

Its her 32 day and it still looks like she hasnt started making her nest. She hasnt gathered hay or pulled fur. The vets said she is most likley pregnant because her nipples are swollen. She has been digging more then often and chewing alot to. Should i be concerned? Its her first litter and...

She has swollen nipples & a dewlap which she never used to have. Her due date would be the 7th if she was She is a mini lop & was bred on the 7th of last month. Thanks

Ok thank you very much! Would it be a good idea to bring her inside for the rest of her pregnancy?

Ok thank you very much guys! What are the best ways to decrease the chances of the kits dying and if its a good idea to hand raise any of them? Thanks c:

Hello my rabbit has accidentally gotten pregnant so I didnt mark down the date the breed or anything. I would like a rough estimation of when she might give birth so i can give her a nesting box and everything? The signs she is showing currently are: Swollen nipples Very small chunks...

Maybe a flemish giant x dutch? I am not the best with breeds :)

Put on some gloves & wear a thick jacket to avoid any injury to yourself. Make sure you go to pick him up from the side so he can see you coming and he doesnt get shocked, approach him slowly. Give him a few pets to calm him then gently wrap your hands around his stomach/bottom then pull him in...

And Helicopter (the boy) is booked in to get neutured next week, it will be perfect timing - as soon as shes finished nursing he should be recovered (:

I don't mind spending bunnies on my rabbits, i just want whats best for them. It costed $60 which is cheaper then waiting until the last minute to find out she is pregnant and have a hard time finding homes for the kits. She IS pregnant & the vets said she is big enough & healthy enough to birth...

Well she is at the vets at the moment they said they are going to do blood tests, ultrasounds & scans.

What can cause the tight stomach? I read that some does start nesting 2/3 weeks before giving birth and it just depends on the doe

Also i managed to feel her stomach today, its very tight around the lower part. Does this mean she is just over weight?

Possibly, how do i tell the difference?
