[@donaldasayers]

Been there done that. Ended up with the most loving pet rabbit ever.

[@calliepatteen]

I have a new born cotton tail bunnies have any pointers I need them lol I want to have it live

[@giselleyanet9661]

I have a kit that is like 2 days old and I’m not so sure how much I’m supposed to feed it and how many times a day. pls help

[@loreleiweston5323]

Giselle Gomez 3

[@moonymoon1008]

Giselle Gomez once every two hours should be fine. You can feed it up to 1ml per 10g of weight each day. For example, a bunny that weighs 130g has to be fed with about 12-13 ml each day, stretched over the times you feed it

[@giselleyanet9661]

SophieMoony thank you!

[@majors80]

They all found really great homes. My kids decided to give them up and I had to let go as well :( but they all found very special people that take really good care of them. I sure do miss them!

[@jungxkk6854]

Aww :(

[@stopthegame1502]

Hi

[@amandamorgan2802]

Sweety..How eerie is this-soon after I buried my rabbit,I thought of this music.Debussy-The girl with the flaxen hair.It was a terrible day.He was put down after becoming very ill. And here I hear the same music.But this is a life about to begin..

[@sauntersway3980]

Your probably a great dad by now. I just got a new bunny and love bunny videos. Your has been online a while. Good job fine young man. I hope your life is what you deserve. You must be a kind and sweet as my bunny. God bless you!

[@Juliacornwall]

I was astonished to see on a recent documentary that the buck waits beside the doe until she has finished giving birth to immediately impregnate her again, then she leaves these tiny, helpless infants warmly cocooned in a nest of her fur and only returns to give them milk for about three minutes a day! Yet in the wild they all survive .. amazing! Fabulous documentary with secret access right into the burrow, I loved it!

[@m.k.challenges2358]

wow it kind of sad when mother passed away and i loved how you just did to your baby rabbit and i hope you to have a good luck with your bunnies and please keep them safe and warm thank you for sharing this video i loved this video

I find that hard to believe

[@rabbitloverkimi]

Hello, Major Lynn My sister recently got a bunny, a Holland Lop named Duchess. Ever since ,I grew to be obsessed with these creatures! Thanks for sharing this video, and for saving these angels!

[@majors80]

Thank you for watching and Holland Lops are also a very beautiful breed ;)

[@rabbitloverkimi]

Major Lynn No problem, and they are very lovely breeds.

[@majors80]

If they are doing good so far on PetAg(goats milk esbilac), continue using it :) If they get diarrhea, that is a bad sign! Then you for sure want to use fresh goats milk. One tip that I think works miracles is warm a little chamomile tea and give after every feeding, just a little to them. It helps the tummy from bloating and causing stress ;) Also hydrates. Wont harm the babies at all! I sure wish you the best of luck and hope to hear that your little ones survive :) Crossing my fingers ;)

[@majors80]

Thanks Sarah! My babies did great and all found wonderful homes as pets :) I wouldn't hold the babies upside down at all. I feed all my babies upright so they would not aspirate and feed really slowly..

[@cutepetschannel118]

Can be a critical problem when the mother rabbit dies on the first day. I grow tens of rabbits and every time I suffer when this problem occurs . You dit a great job for sharing this video. Well done!!!

[@rebeccabradshaw8911]

Thanks for doing this.... I think a babbling is the most precious in the world.

[@majors80]

I agree with you on the bunnies raising, it is the hardest I thought as well. I grew up on a ranch so i think its wonderful that you are raising lots of animals. Most kids don't get to have that great experience! I will for sure subscribe to you...My son is interested in showing, he is 11. He will be going into 4-H next year, he wants to start there :O) Keep up the good job!

[@eppiechan5673]

Wow~ What a delicate but huge job! It needs tons of patience & caring. Awesome!

[@gazellerichardson9135]

Great info. My cat brought in a nest of bunnies. Unfortunately they were more than just cold. They are very delicate. She carried them in like she would have carried her own kittens (my realizing what she was doing on the last one in), but the Vet said having picked them up by the back of the neck was too much for their fragile little bodies. I was hoping they'd make it, as she was trying to mother them, had them all up against her belly, and I'd put a towel over them to try and keep the heat in. She'd never had kittens and I was surprised at her behavior. Was noticeably upset when I took them away from her. Next time I'll know what to do. Thanks, *Gazelle.

[@AlexisHiggerson-ig8qi]

My cat did the same!!!!!

[@Cheeku7777]

Gazelle Richardson what happened next

[@eppiechan5673]

Gazelle Richardson If your cat has so much maternal love & so eager to mother babies, maybe, u can adopt orphan kittens so as to fulfill her great wishes.

[@eppiechan5673]

Other than petting a cat, keeping a rabbit seems like another good option. Quite similar to cats, rabbits are clever, cute, & clean.

[@SRHMorbid]

My male cat just brought a nest in.

[@jamesevans9770]

My Rabbit JUST gave birth and im freaking out!! its so Frickin CUTE!

[@maxarnold1]

My dog sadly killed about two then I found the third one and made a little home now I'm watching this thanks!!

[@majors80]

As for the domestic comment, I have to disagree on the 2 feedings a day. I fed my baby bunnies at least 6 times and then it became less and less feedings as they grew. It takes a lot of time and devotion to hand raising a baby bunny especially more than one. I must of done something correct if my babies made it :)

[@farrahabazary7042]

Mine is about 2-3 weeks old but I’m not sure how to feed it or what to feed it. Can you help me please? Also should I hand feed water too or just leave it in the cage?

[@HamiHamizcmr]

i feed mine cow's milk cuz i cant feed it goats milk

[@andreahedge1622]

I thought Rabbits are lactose intolerant

[@lollisubs]

@@andreahedge1622 Only once they reach adulthood.

[@majors80]

I am getting into Silver Fox Rabbits. They adopt baby kits from other litters very well. Great mothers! They also have very different personality and are just an interesting breed.

[@smoochofficial]

Your video was so helpful for me, my rabbit just gave birth 3 days ago , and sadly she killed two of her babies (8 in total) due to the cats walking near her house, and I only managed to rescue 6 of them, the vets advised I fed them goats milk for now , so far they are taking it ok, I just hope they all survive .

[@ValLeeWeblog]

Love the soothing music with a bit of a western feel.

[@michaelschmidt5702]

Major Lynn...your video is excellent! Very good job! I have grown up five little tiny dwarf bunnies! I love bunnies so much!

[@caitlynolinger6404]

So me and my mom found a baby bunny all by itself and no mom has came for it and it was alone and I don't know how old it is it's eyes or ears aren't open yet and I have looked up many ways to take care of it and this has to be the first helpful thing I found thanks u so much

[@majors80]

A heating pad works best and does not cost much. I bought mine for $10. You can try to line a box with cloth and keep them in a nice part of your home, where they wont get a draft on them. As long as they stay out of the cold, they should be fine.

[@sarahlindgren4343]

i rescued the runt and i’m not sure their going to make it through the night. their siblings are 4 times their size and have their eyes open and can walk. however this little guy can’t walk at all and is like a newborn bless. i am doing my best though. making sure he is happy safe and warm

[@majors80]

Purchased the bottle at Tractor Supply. Its a kitten bottle comes with 3 extra nipples in different sizes to anyone who is in need of this bottle ;) You can probably order it on-line if needed :)

[@krishnanvimala4525]

hey :) i have interest in bunnies. can you please tell me,does bunnies turn wild as they grow older ? or they still stay friendly ,some kind like dogs ? how much does a baby bunny cost ? does bunnies reconize their owners ?

[@majors80]

Krishnan Vimala Domesticated rabbits don't turn wild unless they are being abused or inbred to much. They can become aggressive if they have bad bloodlines or are treated wrong. Rabbits will stay friendly if treated right and you pay attention to them. As for cost, that varies on breed and age. Yes, baby rabbits can grow attached to their owners, just like any animal ;o)

[@johncrowther9506]

***** i have ten baby rabbits in one cage they drink water out the main bottle mum died yesterday there just on 4 weeks old why do you have to wait months to give them water?

[@majors80]

John Crowther At 4 weeks baby bunnies can be weaned. They already now to eat and drink. Also, baby bunnies start to drink water at 3 weeks old. Water is very important!

[@johncrowther9506]

Major Lynn i know but someone said different on here

[@xxxlambertixxx]

My heart goes out to you. I raise American Chinchilla's, I saw the doe eat one of the babies but she raised the litter (10) O.K. In another case the doe had one large kit that I had to keep warm for one day because she had 3 the next day. I could not put one kit in with the mother because it could not keep warm. I also heard that you could put a tiny bit of rabbit poo in the milk to help with the gut flora. Good Luck!

[@Juliacornwall]

Glory, I didn't know that - which accounts for why, when I briefly kept a couple of rabbits, one big black buck and a small grey doe, I twice found dead kits in their cage in the morning, and thought it was because she was too small for him. I had him neutered after that and they lived happily together until one day he died. She waited just long enough for me to find him, then scaled the wire of their outside pen and rushed off into the wild. I loved her for that, I do have to say.

[@margaretarmstrong8631]

I have watched parts 1 - 3. My doe was taken by a fox and I am trying to raise the four surviving babies. I found your video very informant. Only 1 question though - how often do you clean the nest that I took from the hutch and put in the box with them?

[@majors80]

I had put a small towel on the bottom of the box and then mommas fur(that she pulled to make the nest) on top of them. When they were about 1 weeks old I replaced a new towel into the box. Then when they turned 2 weeks I replaced it again. The 3rd week, they went into a larger box with of course another towel under. I also used the bathtub(put a towel as a bed in the tub) as they became more active. I sure wish you lots of luck and hope everything goes good for you and the little ones. Sorry you lost your momma rabbit, just terrible.

[@margaretarmstrong8631]

Thanks very much for your reply. The first week has passed and all bunnies are doing really well. I have been nursing them on a four hourly basis. I have replaced the dirty bedding slowly each day and they now accept my smell as their mother. They have a large following on facebook which I update every day with their progress. I do hope you have a look or if you send me a friend request I shall add you as a friend. My facebook name is Margaret Armstrong (Margy Clelland) Gateshead, Newcastle Upon Tyne UK. I got another two lionhead does to keep my other rabbit company. I am totally smitten now with my four little kits. Best Regafrds

[@majors80]

Margaret Armstrong I Will look you up on facebook ;) So glad to hear that they are doing good :)

[@janicekon6468]

Margaret Armstrong I have added you on Facebook as I would like some tips on how you raised your orphan bunnies (as I found myself in the same situation). Hope you'll help. :-(

what a feisty little guy yet cute as always!

[@chloerobertson7065]

awe how sweet of you to do that for them baby's

[@juliashenandoah3965]

So cute, but you should try smaller bottles otherwise the cute babies get afraid of being fed because they cannot handle the oversized soother and get fluid in their lungs.

[@jakeadams4621]

Oh dear stop complaining

[@ashleycloud1567]

My cousins rabbit had babies and wasn't taking care of them. So he left me in charge of caring for the babies. I learned to mix goat milk with heavy whipping cream (because goat milk doesn't have enough calories alone). I've had the babies for about 2 weeks and they are growing and doing well :)

[@bumblebee2372]

I’m currently looking after a baby rabbit we saved but he is a little older than the ones u have but this has really helped me thanks XD

[@cariostrander9916]

wow just noticed this message is a tad late lol oh well. I currently have 4 that momma left me. She passed yesterday. I'm not sure why she did she's had 3 other kits. So trying to raise them. Not sure if I'll succeed but I have to try. Your vids are a big help and i plan on watching many. thanks for the tips..

[@andreahedge1622]

Thank you very much. We got a baby rabbit and was told it was a boy... then it had a baby.. being so young I guess, she didn't produce milk. We was wondering cause baby would frantically keep switching acting like nothing was coming out, we didn't know how to tell if he ate anything so this helped tremendously.

[@majors80]

I used fresh goats milk. Don't stop trying to feed them. It can be hard but they will learn as they get hungry enough. I sure do wish you luck and success ;)

[@funnystorm9508]

Hi

[@funnystorm9508]

I got a question

Is it OK to use kitten milk or cow milk?

[@alicegillett5814]

Hi again Lynn I ordered one of those bottles from the second company you sent me. All i can do is try. I already lost 2 on the way but all is looking good with theses 2 so far. Your utube clips r a great help and thanks again. Will let you no how it goes.

[@majors80]

I wish you all the luck! All you can do is try :) So sorry you lost 2 but its a hard job raising little bunnies by hand. Hope your other 2 make it ;)

[@lunamaxis115]

My mom and I found seven baby rabbits. My dad messed with the nest not knowing what it was. And my dog chased the Mama away. We sat and waited, Mama Bun did not come back :(. The temp was dropping so now we have 7 Kits. This video is helpful :) Wish us luck.

Thanks sooo much our baby bunnies came to our house by a lawn mower hitting its nest😓 2 died but 2 live 1 has a broken leg that will hopefully heal so THANKS!!!😀

Great to hear but you should have made a video to show that you did it! There are a lot of people that could use the information on how to save the bunnies...Do you have any videos? I would love to see your methods...

[@ranasharafeddin1062]

Wow major Lynn that was so beautiful. I have 10 baby rabbits,and I have one mother rabbit. big sister of a rabbit. I like that song it made me relaxed. I love your story. And I will look for part 2.

[@majors80]

Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy part 2. It was very fun to hand raise them and such a challenge but at least 3 of them survived and are living a wonderful life with their new homes. They are very special and always will be :)

[@garyswerdlowmusic]

I didn't have to care for the rabbi kit, but there was a rabbit nest in my backyard in April and I watched as the mother and two kits used my backyard as a haven for nursing and growing. One of the kits disappeared but I watched the other grow almost every day for 5 months. I still think it spends the evening in my backyard although I can't be sure it's the same one. Could you please let me know the name of the music you used on the video. It sounds a little like Debussy. Thanks!

[@Kk-me1si]

What kind of milk should I use?

[@majors80]

I have a vet but there is not much they can really do. What i am doing is basically what they would try. The vet is a friend of the family and she dont charge me because we are friends. So, that helps me out a lot. My vet says that odds are rough when it comes to them (kits) being so young. All i can do is try! Around here the humane society dont really know to much about rabbits when it comes to them being so young. Thanks for your prayer and just maybe it will go all good.

[@Ymmas2000]

we found 4 wild baby rabbits with unopened eyes. we feed them 3-4 times a day and keep them together in a small box (large to them). after feeding them we massage their stomachs. we also put them under a towel in a hot lamp when they are not being fed. what are their chances of survival?

[@dawngilmour6961]

Have done this with New Zealand whites and French lops. Both mamas abandoned their babies so it was up to us xx

[@majors80]

Sorry, that you lost them but at least you tried.I was shocked that I could not find any help on raising baby bunnies,not much.This is why I thought record it and post it, to help others get an idea of how to save little baby bunnies. I was not even sure if my process would work but I had to try. I learned that I will never have this happen again! When I breed, I breed a few momma's (all at the same time) so it don't happen again ;) Have a back up momma always on hand when raising rabbits:)

[@Lilly_bloom_20]

Which milk you feed them i also found 2 wild rabbit on roads side forest i take them to my home just 3 hours ago what can I do plzz tell me

[@majors80]

Great job in raising the body temperature! I have used goats milk in raising my baby bunnies and I feed morning & night. It lead to at least 6 feedings all together and also depended on who would eat and who did not eat at the feeding time. I don't know how well the kitten formula works. I was scared to use it because It can cause diarrhea. I also used a warm chamomile tea after each feeding to help with bloating or discomfort. Let me know if it works, kitten formula?

[@cocoquake]

So precious! 💕Keep them safe!

[@wonderland2023]

Lovely

[@arianebolt1575]

FYI, if they're squirming around too much, you can try holding two at a time. They're much calmer that way.

[@bebebutterfield1]

You have your hands full there. I wish you the best of luck. You're doing a fine job. Have you asked any friends or family if they have a nursing female any kind of animal? I'de call a vet and the Humane Society for pointers. I prayed for you. Maybe sheep or goat milk is best.

[@majors80]

I would not recommend using cows milk. Goat's milk is easy to digest and great for lactose intolerant people, so it is very easy on the tummy of a small baby bunny. The chamomile tea after every feeding(just a little) helps with any bloating that may happen when feeding a baby bunny milk that is not from a rabbit. Cow's milk is just to strong for the bunnies tummies. :) Hope that helps and thanks for commenting...

[@nanadin7418]

its a great job ! can you tell me how much litre of water with 1 table spoon milk? and how much milk must each bunnies have ?

[@sarahodonnell5158]

I go with dwarf lops cause of thier showing and temperment although i did NZ white x british giants for meat quite recently those were my hand raised ones but dwarf lops are also good for the pet market ive found:-)

[@Artybodydoubling]

Awwww he/she is a right character

[@amandasansone]

I hope you still check your comments on this. My 2 chihuahuas pulled 3 bunnies out of their nest. Their eyes are still shut, they are grey, and their ears are not standing up yet but they look older than the bunnies in this video. I found the nest, put them back and put a long baby-gate around it with cracks for the Mommy to come back. I left flour on the ground in hopes that I see that Mommy came back through the night. The wild animal center in our area seems uninterested in taking them, and told me to put them back. They said if Mom doesn't come back to do some research on who would be willing to take them. If Mom doesn't come back, I will try my best to care for them. I think there are 4 or 5 total. Where can I get goats milk? Would Petsmart have it? I heard they have a bottle for bunnies.

[@majors80]

Hi, lets hope that momma will return to her nest. Usually she will only visit once or maybe twice. The flour is a great idea to see if she returns. Hope she does. You did the right thing by finding the nest and putting them back into it. The wild animal center knows that the survival rate is pretty low on raising baby bunnies by hand. They must not want to really be bothered with it. If it comes to you having to care for them, it is not easy and can be heartbreaking when you lose them. All you can do is try and maybe you will have a miracle happen as well ;). I am crossing my fingers that everything goes good. Also, goats milk can be bought from a farm or ranch. Check with feed stores or health stores. Where I live its not hard to find but in other places it can be difficult to get your hands on. Also, if you raise them by hand give them after every feeding some chamomile tea or parsley tea. It will help with bloating. You also have to be very careful to not over feed them. It can lead to bloating and death. I am sure that momma will return and check in.

[@amandasansone]

Thank you for replying! I was panicked earlier. I don't want any babies dying on my watch;) I just took a flashlight outside and it looks like Mama's been back!! Great news! And my dogs can't get through the fence I put up. So I hope they all make it, then stop having babies in my yard! Last year we lost 3 because of my bigger dog catching them, then we later lost her to cancer. Luckily my 2 chihuahuas were gentle with them. My 13 year old was bringing me a "present" and my 1 year old was licking and playing with them and just carrying them around;) Thanks a lot!

[@majors80]

I have heard bad things about cows milk so maybe try the buffalo milk and see what happens.I really prefer fresh goats milk.Its how I raised my baby bunnies and also the chamomile tea after every feeding helped out a lot as well.Goats milk is very easy on the tummy and also is great for lactose intolerant people, so it works best for bunnies.You can always do some research online and see is the buffalo milk is a good choice or just try it. Cows milk tends to cause diarrhea and can lead to death.

im praying they make it! i know they will, this almost happened to me, hang in there!

[@nataliejane9422]

its best to put them into the milk in a bowl. yeah its a tad messy but reduces the chances of milk getting into their tiny lungs

[@popeyessupreme]

this is good i have lots of baby rabbits that have no moms and my dog has been killing them there is lots left i want to nurse them and let them out when they are fully grown

[@presidentticode6340]

Can cat milk be used for rabbits? What milk do you use? Thank

[@tarrahanson7741]

I'm sorry about the dead baby bunnies but your doing the right thing by trying to save this one. I got rabbits a while back and was told I had two females and one male (since I didn't know how to sex them myself yet) and one of my female rabbits ended up being a male. Thank goodness my rabbits have individual cages since one was mistaken for a female but I raise rabbits to eat so I was lucky to have them in separate cages I guess since I don't want accidental litters. It's common to sex a rabbit wrong and you didn't know so don't let people make you feel bad. Your doing what you can!

[@rosedixon-campbell1755]

Mother rabbits do not sit with their babies to keep them warm, and visit them just twice a day for feeding. So it is not uncommon to find litters of wild rabbits that appear to have been abandoned. best to leave them alone and let the mum come back when she thinks its safe. Also if your domestic mother rabbit dies and you are left to hand raise, twice a day feeding (eg every 12 hours) is what the baby's little bodies are set up for.

[@janicekon6468]

Major Lynn - I had a devastating time last week as my momma rabbit didn't make it. I am so heartbroken she is gone (she was the sweetest pet ever) & I think it was my fault she died (she was about 2 years old). She died after giving birth and her babies didn't get to feed. So I am now relying on goat's milk & doing bottle feeds every 6 hours. It is very difficult as they don't eat much & look really thin. I am so freaked out as I cannot let her down and I need to keep them alive. I feel so exasperated. We are on Day 6. Your videos have been helpful but I need to ask more questions (sent you an email last week but not sure if you received it). The goat's milk I am feeding is homogenized & pasteurised. Do you have any tips on how to ensure the babies are getting the right good bacteria? Or is feeding just goat's milk enough? I really hope to hear from you soon. Thanks in advance.

[@jahzirao.8146]

+Major Lynn did your the mother of them die!?!?!?!?😢

[@keetsfavorites434]

Major Lynn hi don't get goats milk here, can I feed them with baby's formula milk or cow's milk

[@sierracaincross1660]

kk k u should probably use either kitten or puppy substitute milk. cow milk is dairy which is toxic to rabbits

[@vanessalozano-reyes4449]

The best kind of milk is puppy milk, I got mine in a can and it last about 6weeks for a baby bunny for like 5 it would last about a week. But Puppy milk is the best for them.

[@keetsfavorites434]

Thank-you... But in lost them all.... :-(

[@clairee4939]

Did you do a follow up video of how baby looks all grown up?🤗

[@majors80]

So sad! Take the bunny to a vet and let them know what happened. Wish you and the little bunny luck! Good job on saving the little guy or gal ;O)

[@drewsarrazin700]

Honestly, an amazing person.

[@quigonkenny]

Using a syringe or eyedropper is better for especially young baby rabbits (about up until their eyes open) because it gives you more control over how fast they take in the milk. When they're very little like this one, they're just too spastic, and not in control of their own bodies, so they'll try to drink too fast. The mother rabbit's nipple doesn't release milk fast enough for this to be a problem, and similarly using a syringe or eye dropper lets you control how fast the milk comes out, to a great degree. Using a bottle and nipple gives the kit all the control, so they naturally drink too fast, which is what causes the overflow of milk and potential for breathing it into their lungs, which if it causes an infection, will likely kill them.

[@RingoSatomi]

I have bunnies of my own and they are little they will not eat , do you have any other suggestions for them to eat?

[@shysofi850]

is regular milk ok?

What brand of milk your using and how's the procedure? Thank you

[@alihassanjakhro9229]

How many ml they drink per day ? Cow milk is good for them?

[@lunar3193]

I found one right now & I don't know if I should help it or feed it off to my snake... Seems easier too feed to my snake.

[@majors80]

Its a risk to take! I had no choice but to raise mine because i lost the momma. My momma did feed them the first 3 days but they still had seemed very thin to me. That is why i pobably lost 2 of my babies cause i was to late.At least i still have 3 that are still alive and doing great. Use your judgment in this and i am telling you that it is not easy raising them and that it takes a lot of effort. Also very important for them to get the colostrum from momma if they have any chance of survival.

A wild rabbit gave birth to a couple of kits in the middle of my lawn a couple of years back, and then shot off into the bushes, leaving them behind. I wish I'd had access to this video then; I tried so hard to rear them, but they both died on me after a few days ... and I was heartbroken!

Definitely do! But I hope it don't happen to you again. I am making sure that I breed several rabbits at the same time, so I don't have to raise them again. I can just put them into a litter if anything happens to a momma again. I made a mistake last time by breeding rabbits at different dates and of course the litter I ended up having to raise was the youngest. I did not trust putting them in with the older babies. The older ones where a lot bigger.

Major Lynn, I have 4 new born WILD rabbits that don't seem to have a mom. My dog had found the nest in our yard and unfortunately ate one of the rabbits. My mom relocated the nest right outside our yard (only a few feet away) and I'm not sure that the mother rabbit has come back to her kits or not. It has been 3 days since we moved them and they are still alive. We moved them to where they can be in the shade and in the sun, along with the mother's fur. This morning I found one of the kits outside the nest, a couple feet away and it doesn't seem to be moving. I put it pack in the nest (with gloves on) under the shade incase it was the heat that got to it. What do I do? Do I send them to an animal clinic or try to help them as you did in this video? In high school I learned how to breed my own rabbit and everything so I have experience with rabbits but I'm not sure what to do in this situation.

BETWEEN COW OR BUFFALO MILK WHICH MILK WE SHOULD GIVE TO BABY RABITS................

How did you get this little bunny, if you don't mind me asking? Is it 1-2 weeks old or 3 weeks? Need a little more information so I can try to help you out or give some direction to you...

[@majors80]

Do you know about how old they are? All I can tell you is keep trying to feed them. Also, always keep some hay in with them because they do munch on that here and there even when they are 2 weeks old. Hang in there and keep trying is all you can really do. Try a syringe, bottles, sponge, washcloth and see if anyone of those work. If you use a syringe or bottle be sure you feed very slow so you don't drowned them. Good luck ;)

I only found this channel now when I was searching "How to teach baby bunny to eat pellets". Well, while I'm at it I wanna share my experience with my bunny. I have gone through the same thing, too late to know that the mother rabbit isn't producing enough milk and was kicking, stepping and even peeing on them (a sign that she was abandoning them) two died and we handfeed the three babies we got to rescue after finding out she was abandoning them, but they had severe diarrhea even if we follow what the vet instructed us, may I ask if your baby bunnies went through the same thing? Did they all survive?. on her first set of kits only one survive. the second litters (I realized she was carrying them on their womb even if she was pregnant on her first) I was a unknowledgeable and beginner bunny owner so it was too late to found out that she was pregnant at the same time. we have removed her from my male bunny though after finding out that she was pregnant with her first litters , the second litters all died since they are very weak. If I decided to have another bunny babies (maybe after two years since I am traumatized, I have removed my male and female bunny in different xpen) can you advise me how to prevent them from getting diarrhea and the others who died without knowing why? Hope you can still respond in my message even though it has been years, 🙏 thank you so much

What kind of bottle did you use? I bought kitten bottles just in case. I have a small rabbitry and sometimes the does aren't good mothers.
