v2002brown Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 when i went into feed my rabbits morning i noticed my ruby has been plucking her fur out and placing it all in her nest box how long away will it be before her gives birth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecudc Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 probably in the next day or so, unless it is a phantom.....I would recomend though if this was not an accidental litter reading up more on the subject as that is quite basic knowledge and you need to have a good grasp of the subject such as what to do if she isn't suckling, hand rearing, genetics, likely diseases to affect young kits, diets, and so on if you want to take it further.

mrsallen08 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Hiya This does usually mean she is pregnant or a phantom pregnancy as ecudu said. Has she been with any bucks to be pregnant? You do have to be v.well prepared for kits (baby rabbits) as often you cannot touch them or the nest or the doe will attack or abandon the babies. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
