My rabbit had a litter of 5 a few weeks ago (first ever litter, she is the first bunny I had gotten, she has had no problem with me being around them since the day she gave birth and she takes good care of them).
i haven’t been home the last few days but previously I had noticed one kitten that takes a little longer to come out the nest at feeding times, I’ve been making sure they all eat enough when I am home.
My mum believes that the kit looks very underweight compared to the others (I’ll compare today I just seperate them to feed With me and observe it’s behaviour) and she says the last few days it haven’t been cleaning itself either nor has its mother (I’m not 100%).
The kit is very friendly, not as active as the other 4 and a bit of a picky eater and as of right now it’s waste is dark and oval shaped instead of bigger and containing of fibre
EDIT 1: they’ve started cleaning themselves right after me posting this
Should I be worried?
I’ll leave a poll as well so this is easier to respond to
