Recently about a couple days ago my rabbit gave birth to 7 beautiful babies. I'm really freaking out though because now there are only 2 babies. The other 3 disappeared, they were just gone. And I found 2 dead in the nest. Is something getting her babies or do bunnies eat week old babies?
 
If they are outdoors then you likely have a rat, weasel or something small like that taking them. These small predators can fit through the bars of a rabbits cage. You either need to catch whatever is taking them, or you need to predator proof your cage with wire mesh with smaller spacing.
