So my NZ x Flemish mix doe had five kits 8 days ago. I had to bring her in to feed the kits because she didn't wanna take care of them. So they have been getting along fine, but the doe is really stressed. She had a litter at her previous home, but didn't take care of them. So she has like no mothering instincts. :evil:
She suddenly looks like she has a wet nose, like slightly damp, but you touch it and it's dry. She doesn't have any matting on the paws, she hasn't sneezed at all. So snuffles is NOT a concern at all, I haven't brought in any new rabbits anyhow.
Anyways, she normally dives into her pellets, but today she just wanted to eat her hay and carrots. She is eating and drinking. She is going to the washroom normally, but her flesh condition is very poor at the moment.
Thoughts? She doesn't seem to be producing much milk either, if any. I fed the babies and they still look thin.
I don't have any other lactating does, I have a litter due in two days, but there will be an age difference in the kits.
I'm at a loss of what to do. She is definitely gone when her kits are weaned.
