31 days ago I bred my 1.5 year old mini lop doe (named Daisy) to my 1.5 year old mini lop buck (named Chilli). Chilli grunted and fell off about 3-4 times. It's not his first time so he was fine breeding, but Daisy has never been bred before. There is no kits yet and I'm not even sure if she is pregnant. She isn't aggressive at all, until you go near her belly. She is not nesting yet, however, the other day she had straw in her mouth. I'm pretty sure it was just because it was in her way though. I didn't have the chance to palate her, she won't let me touch her belly. I did manage to gently run my hand along her belly as she moved away from me on about day 21 and I felt a large bump. Could that be kits? I also saw her stomach moving around a lot last week and I'm sure it was kits moving around. She's also been destructive.. Digging in her hutch, chewing the wood. She has plenty of toys and chews. I heard that older rabbits being bred for the first time have a hard time getting pregnant. I'm actually quite disappointed. I was really prepared and excited for kits, but I'm not even sure she's gonna have them.
