HELP WITH KITS!!!!!!!!/Kid progress

[amyandkids]

If I remember correctly my hamster and ferret used to get this and it was from the pine shavings I was using for them, I switched brands to a less dry one and it resolved the problem! Good luck! and I never use shavings for my buns just hay

one of our angora's has a bit of dry skin, it could very well be the weather. I am giving him some black sunflower seeds with his pellets to see if it helps. Maybe you could give the doe some and hopefully it would pass on to the babies.

Oooooo! Thank you!!!! I didnt even think about the shavings! I did put a little bit down initially when she hadn't pulled hair and after i had already lost Dulce' babies. Might as well see if that makes a difference.

Does anyone completely clean out their nest areas while babies are in there? I have been monitoring. And nothing has been wet or dirty. Idk if she has brought them any of her "pellets" to eat yet.

I have found that the nest boxes don't usually need to be cleaned out until the kits are about 4 weeks old give or take. That's when they are more active and they all start using it as a litter box

I agree with @SA Farm and @Hens and Roos . I wouldn't worry about it too much if the babies are thriving and doing good!

Day 10! Seeing little cracks in the eyelids! Little bit longer hair on mane as well! So amazing how they have comfort and just want to snuggle together.

They look like little bunnies!

yeah... I'm thinking I can't eat those.

Look at those lil fuzz butts

I highly doubt you would want to put forth the effort @Southern by choice. They have so much hair with their long mane, fenders, and weigh a whopping lb and half! Lol. Males top the scale at 2lbs lol.

Definitely perfectly created to be a pet
