And the dad (another holland) has 1 dwarf and 1 normal, if you breed these you will get a...

    First babies!

    a peanut would not be in a meat breed, most likely it is a runt, and peanuts usually die after a few days, but I'm glad the other babies are well!

    Rabbit Blood In Nest Box?!!!

    yeah :) My doe had pulled fur, and I hadn't looked in in, and when the fur was there for 3 days I looked in it and there where the babies! :P she built a little hollow in the hay about 5 in. deep, and they where at the bottom of that.

    dehydrated 4 week old kit

    she is very wobbly (what made us think broken something) and can't hop, more scooting, uses her head like as another leg, and she can't go more than 3 scoots. Is that from the dehydration? she had 3 ml. electro-lighted water and 5 ml. KMR
