Ack! The babies all need to be put in separate cages (they should have been at least separated by gender by this age...) and the hurt one needs to go to a vet ASAP!

The thread title states that the babies are newborn, but from the thread itself it appears that the bunnies are 10 weeks old?

Is the problem with a buck or doe?

Does there appear to be injury to the actual genitals?

Can you get a good photo?

Young bucks can injure themselves when riding other rabbits.Bucks and doescan also get kicked or bitten in the genital area.

With the lack of info given, it impossible to venture any guesses as to what's wrong or what to do about it.
