My Holland Lop Eared doe just had a litter of 6 kits. We have the buck in a separate cage, and the doe was doing well at first. She pulled out fur and made a nesting box and appeared to have been feeding them well. After about 3 days, she started to remove some of the babies from the nesting box. One got too cold and passed away. Tonight, she removed all the fur from the nesting box and the babies were cold and shaking. Their tummies are still round and it appears she’s feeding them, but she keeps taking them out of the box or removing all the fur. We remade the nesting box for her and got the babies warmed back up, but why is she doing this? Is there something different we should be doing?
