I bred my flemish giant on may 6, which means its day 32 today. I'm still unsure if she is pregnant or not (first time I've bred her). She usually has free roam, but for the past 4 or 5 days she has been locked in her hutch with a nesting box. She mostly just seems annoyed she is locked up. At first she used the box as a litter box (so like her...) then on day 30 she started tearing it up. Since it was soaking wet with urine I switch the straw and bedding out and helped pull some fur out to get her started. Last night she went back in and was tearing stuff up and this morning had lots of straw in her mouth. Although a few months ago there was a pile of straw and she collected all of it in her mouth just to move it, so I thought maybe she was doing that again? She may or may not have recently looked bigger, it's so hard to tell what is real and what is my imagination just wanting bunnies.
It's day 32 now and I'm starting to get skeptical if she is pregnant or not. I know they can have healthy kits past 32 days, but I just want to know what's going on! If she isn't pregnant I'd like to let her out of her hutch to run around. Any ideas? or anything I can look for or way I can feel for babies without hurting them this late?
On another note, I went to a friends last night who's flemish giant had 12 kits 4 weeks ago. They were are adorable! Grey, black, and white kits in the same litter from grey and steel grey parents.
