So my doe have birth to 2 kits this afternoon, one stretched large kit (the one that got stuck) and a small alive black tort. They both had fur. The live kit looks like it's a few days old but was just born. She's never had such a small litter. She is a holland lop so no large litters to start out with, 3-4 is the norm, so what happened? How does it have fur?

It was day 32, she normally kindles on 34. She is 2.5lb and the buck was 4lb so I guess that's why the kit got stuck but she's had a good large litter with him before so....

Anyway, should I be worried with a single kit in the winter? I don't have any does with litters to foster with and I've never had a small litter over winter. She pulled a good amount of fur and the kit is round and happy
