Last but one litter we had was a combined litter of 8. So when we split them from mum, we divided them into boys and girls. 5 boys and 3 girls. In the boys hutch, there was one bully and eventually we had to move out 2 of his victims as they had cuts all over their rear ends. I was due to butcher these buns some time this week. DD came to me last night - the little grey one's had babies!!!!!!
Suddenly it all became clear - 2 of my boys are girls, one boy has decided he is boss and has been seeing off the opposition. AAARRRRGGGHHH - so the chances are the other doe is now expecting as well, so I guess we have 2 new does. And I checked them so carefully as well
Mind you, one of them is the little funny coloured one that I posted a pic of over on HT some time ago - she is very pretty, but I thought she was a boy LOL
I suppose we are going to be eating LOTS of bunny for a while LOL. And then I think I am going to have to just butcher them smaller/sooner.
