Need help with pregnant doe

[Ebers]

Almost all of my does kindle on day 31 or 32 so hang in there you've been given some excellent advice, they've helped me through some stressful situations lately

In over 30 years of breeding rabbits, and hundreds of does, I have only had a handful kindle on day 28, and they were carrying very large litters. I had one doe that always kindled on day 30, regardless of the size of the litter. The vast majority have been day 31 or 32, though if they go to day 35, there are usually only 1 or 2 huge babies, and they take so long to deliver, they hardly ever survive.

Okay. Thank you so much for the help!!

do rabbits bleed when coming close to kindling?? my other two does have small drips of blood in their cages. not sure where its coming from on them, since theyre quite feisty and wont let me hold them for more than a few seconds.

Not normally. Any chance they tore a nail?

There's definitely a chance. I'll try to look them over, but they aren't being very cooperative. (running to the back of the cage/squirming when I pick them up/kicking when I hold them)

My does did when they were having trouble delivering. How are they doing today?

One of them is bleeding more today than she was yesterday. the other has stopped bleeding completely. i was told they should have a week to go still (kindling around the 24th) but she could have had her dates mixed up. is there anything i can do to figure out why theyre bleeding, or help if theyre having trouble delivering?

this is in the last 10-15 minutes.

I would guess they're miscarrying... I personally haven't had one do that though.
