Espresso’s litter look very cozy!

This is most likely going to be Penelope's last litter. She just isnt able to produce enough milk to keep up with her kits demands. Luckily Tina and Espresso are attentive, doting mothers so I've fostered two of Penelope's litter to each of them, leaving Penny with the two kits that she is...

I 'm shelving Tina's kits for now, she is still in nesting mode despite the babies arriving and I dont want her to hurt them digging around in the nest box. Hopefully she gets out of the mood in a day or two

Also apparently Espresso wasn't finished having her kits when I checked, as two more healthy babies appeared. Tina had her litter last night, but not in the nest box, rather in a nest built on wire. Everyone is alive, but 3 of the 7 are cold, so I'm warming them up before putting them in with...

Ill get pics of the parents before the weekends out! Tequila is not gonna be happy but he'll get over it lol I have attached the pedigrees of both the buck (Tequila) and the doe (Penelope)

Espresso had her kits, 5 healthy babies! She didn’t pull hardly any fur, so I took some wool from when I clipped one of my bucks and covered the babies in them. At least she had them in the nest!

The first of my does, Miss Penny, has kindled. 6 kits, no stillborns. There is one runt which Im gonna have to keep a close eye on. I was surprised at the colors that have come from this pairing. Mom is a lilac tort and dad is a lilac point, but these babies look dark. Im excited to see what...

Penny had her litter: 6 healthy kits! The other two girls are due tomorrow!

We're officially on baby watch! Miss Penny is due tomorrow and her daughters are due on Wednesday!

As I type, I just spent 15 mins watching my two first time does build their nests. Despite being half-sisters, they are taking dramatically different approaches to it. Tina is meticulously gathering every scrap of hay and stuffing it in her nest box, carefully rearranging it until everything is...

Thank you! Ive been reading posts from here for awhile, figured I would finally join! And yes, I will post pics of the babies as soon as I can! Still waiting on their grand entrance lol

Hi, I'm a new member to the forum. I raise English Angora rabbits and currently have three does a week out from kindling. My partner spins the wool we get from our buns. I built a custom 10'x10' shed to house my buns and they live in glorious air conditioning during the summer, just to keep...
