She kindled this morning early, all seems well. I will look tomorrow morning and see if she has fed them, I sure hope so.

I have brought rabbits into my basement for coolness in the summer. Only when it gets so fkg humid and around 90. If there is no wind blowing and its humid they were happy to come in for the day then back out at night.

are these grown rabbits? all get sick at the same time pretty much? good job on inspecting them, that can't be fun.

I had to look up Oryctolagus cuniculus. What I read is they are devastating to the eco system.

That's great. thank you. i did buy the evaporated but now I know. Or I could get a goat.

I read the old posts, thank you. Will follow the instructions and recipe if need be. Just bought it all and I feel more at ease, just in case.

I am following your recipe and instructions. I have until next week to see if she feeds or not. If so lucky me, if not I'll let ya know. Thanks so much.

The evaporated goats milk is pretty pricey. Can I skimp and use powdered goat milk with the rest of the recipe?

atta girl!

Excellent! I think she will feed this time. She has in the past but something went wrong with the last litter. I still blame the wind. I will get ready just in case. By the way, neighbors are a pain.

OK Thanks.

Wow....rats. Death to them all!

If my doe does not feed who if anyone has had success bottle feeding from day one? I feel I should be prepared this time in case. Last time she had no milk. This time I'm feeding nettles and raspberry leaves.

I was going to ask about feeding kits in case mama doesn't this time. Sounds like it doesn't work.

I have been thinking about the off seasons for does. I'm hoping that this time my doe feeds. Since she can now eat fresh timber greens, nettles and I now have raspberry leaves I can give her. Seems we are all struggling right now keeping our babies alive. 7 days to wait for me but I'm...

Perfect. I just planted 12 starts. Gave her a leaf, she loves them.

This is all fascinating to me. I am getting leaves today and will use them 3 days before her regular time for kindling and see what happens. Fresh or dried seems to be OK. Thanks for the info, trial and error or trial and success, either way every day is a learning day for me.

great, thank you

Hello. I have access to some raspberry leaves. Do I give those for helping produce milk? Think I've read it helps to expel a dead kit.

My doe goes 33 days. Give 'em another day and turn 'em out
