Hey, I have a mini Rex doe that just had her 2nd litter about 2 weeks ago (first litter was totally fine). When they where a few days old I counted five and left them alone in the nesting box. The next day I counted four I just thought that I miscounted or something because the dropping pan and nesting box where clear. This morning I checked on the four, and one of the bigger ones was missing without a trace, I looked everywhere and Its gone, the second largest one had a small patch of missing fur and what looked like a bite mark (but I cant tell what). Thank you>>
 
Rats, weasels, raccoons, snakes, etc. It sounds like you have some critter taking them. I would bring the remaining kits inside when mom isn't nursing them, make sure mom and any other rabbits are safe, and set up a camera to try and determine what it is you are dealing with.
