    Are my buns to closely related to breed?

    Inbreeding is fine, as long as your not showing your rabbits.

    Whoops! Just got accidentally pulled into rabbit raising...

    Hmmm, I've never pulled fur from any of my moma's. I've had some not pull hair until about 2 days after they've had their kits but I always have hay in their nest boxes. Also, I don't know about putting paper in for extra insulation. My rabbits would eat it up. You seem to be getting some good...

    Moving Babies to Nesting Box (good/bad?)

    barefoot_bast is right. Also, rabbits arent like cats, they cant move they're babies.

    When do you help?

    *Seems like your doing everything right. You'll be a pro in no time! ;) *As for my runt, it took a lil while to realize it. He ran around in circles like he was searching for something. In time I noticed a pale white glare over his eyes. More on one eye than the other. He still goes around in a...

    When do you help?

    Well, I guess might point was, just take the nest box out of the top section, close off the bottom and just let them all hang out with mom and the other kits, in the top. However, your way could work, too. I'm raising a runt, myself. He's about 2 months old and about 1 1/2 -2 lbs, right now and...

    When do you help?

    That's good to hear! I always love the runts. By the way, smart thinking on keeping it warm in your bra. I can't do that, so I had to wrap mine up in towels and set them by the heater, but I was with them the whole time. Once warmed up, I put them back with the others. ;)

    When do you help?

    Sorry, I was outside giving the rabbits a shower and changing out they're water. It's already 94 degree's and will be over 100 around 5 pm, so everyday I spray the rabbits with water and change out the hot water for cold. I do this about 3 times a day. I've only lost one to heat, about 2 years...

    When do you help?

    Yes, there is! Thanks for the photos. I would do just like you said, close off the top from the bottom and let them stay up there, till you get back. They should be just fine.

    kits and fireworks

    I know I'm late answering but I agree with Animalmom and Ridgetop, unless you were popping fireworks or making real loud noises next to the pen they're in, they will be fine. ;)

    When do you help?

    How big is the upper half? Is there enough room for the food and water and moma, up there?

    When do you help?

    Honestly, it's really not necessary to weigh them all the time. I've never weighed mine in the past 3 1/2 years of raising rabbits. Don't see the need in it, unless I was raising them for show. Their weights will vary from day to day. Every now and again one may miss a feeding. One of my moma's...

    When do you help?

    That's good that your keeping them separated, now. Yeah, you never leave another adult rabbit with one that's having kits or even after they're born. Doesn't matter if they were raised together, having kits changes everything.

    When do you help?

    You had the mom's sister in the pen when she had her kits? I'm surprised she didn't kill them, not that it happens all the time, but it does happen. Other than that, you seem to be doing everything right! Good for you! :)

    When do you help?

    The one born outside of box should be okay, once you warm it up. And you don't bottle feed them, you use a syringe to feed them with, using the Kitten milk (powdered or liquid). Walmart usually has it. Keep us updated on theyre progress. :)
