Its day 33 for my Netherland Dwarf... should I be worried?

[lpmorgens]

My Netherland Dwarf is on day 33 of pregnancy, and quite plump. She seems to be very pregnant. Not sure if its too late to hope for a healthy litter, but I would like to ensure my doe is safe. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Has she built a nest? Are you able to palpate any actual kits?

This old thread discusses an overdue doe:

And another:

The last post in this thread talks about watching for babies to kick if you aren’t very good at palpating:

Finally, here’s one discussing how long people have had does go before kindling:

Sorry I’m not particularly helpful - I’m still a rabbit novice. But it sounds to me like there’s really nothing to do but continue to wait, especially if she’s acting normally yet. Other than perhaps offer a Tums for a calcium boost.

Good luck!

yes , just wait and see,
- even if she has troubles,- there is not a lot that can be done..
some herbs help, raspberry leaves, [or stems in the winter]
--just a guess, as you don't show where you live ..
