she pulled out a LOT of her fur and put it in a corner but I don't see or feel babys in the fur. PLEASE tell me she DID NOT EAT THEM!!!! 
did she eat them or did she not have them yet? how do you know when the does eat the babys?? 
I have been trying to get her to breed now for a while and I did not think she was going to have them again and today I went out there to breed her and I find fur all over!!! 
I just went out to see how my doe was doing and she had 9 maybe more buns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they are big!!!!!! 3 inchs long and 1 inch wide!!! 
is this normal for rabbits?? so 
so I am trying to make quilts and other stuff to sell in july as I don't have a job right now. so I need to make some money someway for what I need for them, But I am not happy that as I only like to do them in my spare time, but I don't have a lot of time now so got to cram that in too now. 
and on the 13th the kits eyes are opening up to see the world they live in. soo cute!!! 
Stopping in to say "hi" and read your journal. Glad to hear the kits are walking already.
