Well while I was gone today the red doe decided to use her nest box full of babies as a litter box & killed a 9 of them

Sometimes you just end up shaking your head... like, what were you thinking? Sorry about your losses.

I've lost both litters to the does using their nest boxes as litter boxes in the last couple days I even tried cleaning out the box & moving it incase I accidentally put it in the corner they use the bathroom in .... do you think they'll figure it out next time or should I try to replace them? Both litters were their 1st litters
