My doe is past her due date and hasn’t delivered!

I have a Holland lop Dell that I bread on December 28, 2022. It was a successful breeding, and she tested positive later for babies.

Her due date was January 28, 2023 and still no babies. I can visibly tell she’s pregnant as she is very round and has a hard time hopping lol. She is very tired and grouchy. She also is very defensive of her nest box although she hasn’t pulled any fur.

I’m really starting to get quite worried as I have raised many many rabbits over the years, and this has not happened to me in quite a while.

Do you all have any advice?

Two days past her due date isn’t a big deal in my experience. My doe, Opal, tends to deliver around day 37. I wouldn’t be super concerned until day 40.
