Mom is orange, dad is a chestnut agouti. I'll post pictures later today!

My first litter of Hollands are 8 days old today, and I'm wondering if anyone can help determine their colors. Thanks!

Mom is doing a great job regularly feeding kits on her own now! Thank you so much for your help

Mom is quarantined. What signs of illness can I look for in the kits? <br /><br /> -- Thu Feb 12, 2015 9:37 pm -- <br /><br /> No snot

My doe delivered kits Monday, and tonight is suddenly very noisily breathing/sneezing. Grumbling/whistling sounds almost constant. She hasn't been exposed to any irritants or anything new, as far as I know. Should I move her to a warmer area of the house, give her time? Does this mean a trip to...

I'm not sure if it's too early to tell, but being excited and curious with no experience sexing rabbits, I thought I'd post pics of my 3-4 day old kits hoping someone may have input as to their genders. :) https://flic.kr/p/qSFJHU https://flic.kr/p/r7YC4G https://flic.kr/p/r7YBp5...

I can't thank everyone enough for your replies! The kits are clean and fed and warm. I'll repeat the feeding in the morning, in the nestbox this time. I recently took in Mom as a "buck" (hah) hoping for a new companion for my little guy whose former buddy passed away. Obviously I have no...

Wow, the kits look so different full! Should I repeat the assist feeding, in the nestbox? And when? <br /><br /> -- Wed Feb 11, 2015 4:34 pm -- <br /><br /> One of the kits has dried feces on his bottom. Do they need bathroom assistance? Should I be doing that, or trusting mom to even though she...

I have her in my lap on the towel as I type this. Babies have been under her for about 5 mins nursing and now have round bellies! For how long do I let them nurse? Mom is very calm like this

First time mom delivered Monday around 4 pm. It is now Wednesday 4 pm and her 3 surviving kits do not yet appear fed. They appear skinny and wrinkled with sunken stomachs, and cry and squirm in the nest. Mom does visit the nest occasionally, adding fur and sitting for a while eating hay. What...

I hope not!! I separated her when she started building her nest about a week before the birth. <br /><br /> -- Wed Feb 11, 2015 2:15 pm -- <br /><br /> Thank you, I am less worried over moving them with information and a plan. She's definitely pulled plenty of hair and even seems to pull more...

Thank you! It is quite cold here lately. I'll keep her in a dark carrier, use a hot water bottle, and cross my fingers.

Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm not new to rabbits, having owned them for a few years, but have certainly found myself in a new situation. My co-worker purchased 2 "male" rabbits for her young son a few months back. Recently she has decided to give them up, and I took one in as a...
