That was about one week ago, January 15, 2021 to January 19, 2021 they were all bread a day apart. They all lost all of their babies. After seeing this video I don’t feel so bad.

My rabbit gave birth yesterday to 8 baby bunnies late afternoon indoors in her cage. We found the babies within 45 minutes. They were not moving all. We tried reviving them with warm water and blow dryer, but no success. She was pulling hair and nesting, but she did not put them in the nexting box, so I feel maybe she is just not healthy. I am not sure if my rabbit is a good mother.

Ours, on her third litter, lost three of the 12 at the beginning and then one died two days later, and then two died a couple of days later but then when they were almost 4 weeks old, she killed two of them by thumping them to death and the next day she killed three more. We only have one remaining. It is so sad we’re not going to breed her again.

Our doe just had her 3rd litter and had 9 kits. One was born on the cage and died, and 2 died in the nesting box. We decided to bring the 6 in for the night because it was in the 20’s that night. Left them covered in the nesting box and 2 more died in our 67 degree house. All of the babies were cold so we warmed them up and took them back outside so the mom could feed them. It ended up being 60 degrees that day and the rest of them were dead by 4pm. I had a nesting box full of hay, covered the bottom with cardboard and filled it up with straw and kiln dried wood chips. They were all still so cold even tho they were covered. I just don’t understand how they died on a 60 degree day in a nesting box and were cold to the touch.

My boy bunny ran away for a month. He came back acting weird , i took him to the vet on 12/21 the dr told me he was healthy but prescribed antibiotics and flea meds. Fast forward to today, he is actually a she and had 4 dead kits in his cage, he… she got pregnant by one of the stray neighborhood rabbits. 😭 I’m so freaking sad! I feel terrible. I also asked the vet to check Salem’s genitalia to confirm if he was a boy which the vet lied about and said they did. But i feel so guilty for not knowing . Poor baby bunnies . I’m just so confused why they all died . They must’ve been born yesterday, none of them looked attacked or injured. Just dead. I wish i knew what happened

He already explained that. 1. She (mom) probably didn't eat well - malnutrition. 2. Born outside of nest - they chill and pass away. 3. First time Mom's often don't know what to do. 4. If she wasn't being fed correctly to feed herself while on the run, she wouldn't be able to feed her own kits. 5. Vet not knowing she's pregnant (& not even able to tell the difference in genders) and giving medication that may have been bad for the pregnancy. So many reasons really.

I got a baby that's blue and white and is prob 8 weeks old and is a holland lop doe and I noticed she looks to the left and right alot. Thought it was fluff in her way of seeing but I think it's neurological and I got her to breed with my boy that's about 14 weeks when she gets older. Now I'm worried about breeding her. She's got dark eyes like a brown color so she's not red eye or albino so should I not breed her? Not breeding for show just breeding for pets. I'm new to bunnies so I'm new to all this and trying to learn as much as possible.

You could try. Honestly, with a litter of 9 especially, I would just let nature takes its course and hope for the best. It is very difficult to force a rabbit to nurse and the stress it puts on the baby may not be worth it. I have had small ones like that do just fine in the long run....and other times I have lost them. it is just part of raising rabbits, you will lose one every now and then.

As long as you have a nest box with plenty of straw and the mother has covered them with fur, they should be fine. Sometimes you do lose a baby rabbit. It is just part of life unfortunately and there isn't always a clear answer as to why. You can try to "shelve" the babies if you want to. Bring the nest box inside and take it out a couple of times a day to allow the mother to feed. But again, as long as they are in a good nest box with straw bedding and the mothers fur it really isn't necessary.

Oh no, i am sorry to hear that. If you didn't change their diet in any way, you may need to add the nest box back in.

Sudden changes in diet can be bad for rabbits.

I lost last two liters of 7-10 rabbits. All die. I wonder if she got miscarriage when I cleaned the cage, put buck and doe in the same cage and they were mating?

I am sorry that you had that problem. I am afraid I can't tell you exactly what caused it but it sounds like she has poor mothering instincts if it happened multiple times in a row. I would replace her if it were me.

All my 7 died. I know I didn't prepare myself and my bun is a first time mother. I should have done more to make sure the babies were warm and all. Also seems like she wasn't feeding them. 😕 😢 I cried.

I had 4 does with babies one time that killed all and ate parts of them. Come to find out my Dad had shown a friend, the evening before, my rabbits. The friend, I knew, worked at a mink farm. Mystery solved.

My doe had a big litter and as expected a few died within the first 2 days. However more died as we went on and I realized even though there nest box had lots of insulation they burrowed to the bottom where it was all above them. I through a grubby T-shirt under the nest box on the cage and then they stopped dying.

Use the straw test. Just go out every other day and throw a handful of straw in her cage. When she starts gathering it up and walking around the cage with it, she is ready to build a nest. if you do that for 30 days and still nothing, she isn't pregnant. I hope that helps.

technically, yes it can be used. But it probably isn't the best option. It tends to clump together and become almost a solid blanket. you really want something that is looser. Cotton batting (like pillow stuffing) or shredded paper (as mentioned already) are good options.
