Well some may know we had a doe that was known by previous owner for kindling on day 30. Today was day 32 still no fur so we kinda gave up thinking maybe it was false pregnancy or she wasn't pregnant. I left the nest box in though.
Well an hour ago I went out to check on her and saw fur, blood, and one on the wire that looked dead. I looked in the nest box and there were 3 others - 2 of which also appeared dead but one wiggling. I got that one out and wrapped it up in warm towel and have it it in my shirt. It's wiggling & making little noises. (Thankful for that!!!!) I warmed the others but they did not revive.
Anyways the Momma is still pulling more fur and is hunkered down in the nest box. She appears she might be still laboring. Hoping for at least one more survivor.
It's around 50 degrees in the rabbitry. I'm assuming even if she doesn't have more survive this one would be warm enough to be back out there in the nest box, correct?
