My doe wont give birth

[Animal Person]

He's been sitting under the light for about 20 min. Do you think he's dead?

I'm sorry, but one large, single baby seldom survives the birth process - it just takes too long. Have you checked to be sure she is done?

How to check to see if she is done giving birth

Sorry for your loss. Agree an overdue single kit usually doesn't make it no matter our actions. For the most part rabbits need no intervention. There's not much can be done to save newborn kits. The plus side to raising rabbits is you can try again soon.
