babies

My doe had babies and she cannot nurse them because that caused her to get ill, which means I have been syringe feeding them formula. I use KMR milk with heavy cream for them, but for two of the babies they make a mess and the milk/formula gets all over their fur. I try to rinse it off but they...

I'm new to rabbits online and I never really got into the whole world of names breeders have to identify coat colours... Could anyone tell me what colour my Rabbit April is (photo attached). She also delivered 2 surprises the other day. They're about 5 days old now, super excited to see how...

My doe had babies and we have four now because unfortunately the others passed away. Since the mama became ill from how much the babies nurses on her, I have to syringe feed two of them. The two I don’t have to syringe feed are very big and will eat pellets and hay, and drink water on their own...

So I've had 2 lionhead dwarfs for quite some time and i bred them twice, first time there were 5 kits, second time 8. I gifted the first 5 and the 8 are healthy and growing. But i recently bought a pair of lop dwarfs, and the day i bought them the guy who sold them to me bred her with his male...

I have a five and half old female rabbit. Normally she always tries to run out of the cage to play whenever I go to give her food, and I let her run around the house for a few hours before putting her away. She had babies two weeks ago and she’s been feeding them and cleaning them. Today when I...

June 1 my 5 month old rabbit had seven babies. She had made a nest in her cage, but I read that the nest should be somewhere clean and her cage was dirty so I moved them into a new nest in a clean cage for them. At first she would jump on them, but lately she just lays down near them and kind of...

Hi, my 1yr old rabbit gave birth to 7 babies, this is her 2nd time giving birth. but on the 17th day one of them started showing signs like rolling over itself like somersaulting, inabilty to walk without falling, next day it was lying down like almost dead, just breathing, with stiff straight...

So my mini lop doe gave birth yesterday to 7 healthy kits. All doing amazing so far including my doe. We rehomed our rabbits from someone who apparently bonded the doe with her netherland dwarf which has resulted in a litter of 7. Cookie our doe is a mini lop which I will attach a photo of...

We rehomed 2 rabbits 10 days ago. They are 11 month old miniature lops brother and sister and not neutered so our plan was to take them on and have them spayed and neutered and then gradually bond them. However we soon realised the doe was pregnant. I asked the woman who we got them from about...

Hey there, eversince my doe became pregnant she has been aggressive towards me but never her babies. The babies are now 4 weeks old and when I checked on them this morning the doe has attacked and killed one of them. Any ideas on why this might be? They are all seperated from her now until I...

Hi again!!! This forum has been so helpful, I thought i'd ask another question as I wasn't able to find any advice. I'm going to start weaning my babies this week as they are 6 weeks of age. My question is: Can I keep the females with mom and just move the males with Dad? Or should they be all...

In November I posted about my Holland Lop Reva, who was having difficult labor and finally gave birth to one kit, DOA. Later I posted when we rebred and our nest box dilemma. Well we finally have our kits - two little Hollands. Here they are, a few minutes old. I was not expecting them until...

I discovered a dead newborn outside of my flemish giant's nesting house, there are no more babies in her nest. It was newly deseased, can she still have more? She isnt any smaller. Could it be the only one? I'm puzzled.

Hello! About a month ago I was given a bunny from someone looking to re home her. A few days ago she started to pull her fur and after some research we figured she was pregnant. Last night I quickly drove to my local pet shot and the owner graciously gave me one of his nesting boxes. I placed it...

So my rabbit just gave birth last night to 4 kits. She made her nest in her litter box and has them in there. Should I move them into the nesting box? Or should I leave them be? Also what should I do as this was an accidental litter and I'm not sure what I should be worrid about and I want to...

I've recently gotten my lovelies from a local petstore (my country doesn't have any rabbit shelters so the only option was unfortunately...to buy.) The petstore staff was lacking of useful and basic information. They couldn't provide me the ages of the buns either which really agigated me...
