The kits are two weeks old today so a few days ago I disinfected the nest box and hutch. I also moved the hutch to a different location, closer towindow with more air circulation (and more action)which may have upset the doe.
This morning the nest box was full of poop and urine. I cleaned it up and am monitoring the situation. I'm guessing the move and cleaning upset the doe? Could it be a sign of something else? I know it's normal to find a few pellets of poop in the nest box but this was excessive.
This doe is very used to being handled. She is the gentle stand friendliest. We handle her and her kits everyday.So far she has been a very good mom and hope I didn't mess that up.
