Is my bunny getting fed?

[JMRABBITRY]

My doe kindled 6 bunnies on Saturday morning, and this morning (Monday) when i went on my routine check-up, one had a significantly smaller stomach than the rest. Is he being fed? Should i try to force-feed him, or do you all have a better idea of what to do.

it might have missed a feeding, not have the will to compete with the others, or might have something not quite right with it. My choice with litters is let them be. I'll monitor them, but if one is failing I will cull it rather than help it. Having fought with rabbits with not strong will to survive when they are little... translates to rabbits with a small tummy ache who will simply die rather than fight to live. So I let them make that choice sooner than later.

Update: this morning i checked, and they all were well-fed!!! Thank you!

YEAH!!! I guess that answers the question on why: just one missed feeding.
