Ya... I got popples.. this is her first litter.. she had 7 big white babies.. I know they are white...lol... mom and dad are REW.. I need more white in my rabbitry.... She is a good mom.. But .....it is going to be cold tonight again.. last night was -24c...(-11f),, so tonight is suppose to be around -18c...(0f)... it was nice and warm in the box when I put my hand over them... do you think I should bring the box in for the night.. or do you think it is ok outside.

If twas me, I would bring them in for the night.
Sounds really cold where you live.

I have left mine outside in those kinds of temps, but I sacrifice and add more wool to what momma plucks when it gets that cold.<br /><br />__________ Fri Nov 29, 2013 8:16 pm __________<br /><br />But we have more of a dry cold here in CO, your probably dealing with the nasty humidity in addition to the cold up there, which makes it worse... Ya. Maybe you should bring them in.

I had mine 1 day old kits out, under 10 degrees last night. I checked this morning and the nestbox was FULL of fluff, I'm now convinced they can survive a nuclear winter.
