This last week I found a rabbit nest inside of our garden boxes. Now that I know it's there, and can watch it from the dinning room window, I see the mama coming and going. She usually sits in front of the box unless my kids are outside. You can see her in the pick. The nest is inside the box by that tall stake on the right. (Sorry for the quality. I took the picture through the window screen.)
My question is, how long will the kits stay in the nest? Right now it isn't a big deal, but I was planning on building two more boxes and prepping the boxes in the next week or so. I don't want to disturb them, but at some point I'll need to plant. At what point do you think I can safely till, etc., and have the babies be big enough to be gone?
Thanks.
