I'm not really sure. I guess I would give her 40 days. I have heard of rabbits going longer than 35 days, but I have never seen it myself.
I have a three strikes and you're out rule. In this case I think I would give her one more chance...
Still haven't found the nest... this has been driving me crazy. I have been all through the woods around my house. I found a mysterious burrow behind the chicken coop, so now I am going to set up game cameras and my live trap. We will see who lives there...
in other news, we had a buck (5...
I have one that goes 34 every time. I have even heard of them going to 38-40 days, but have never witnessed it myself. Small rabbits I have heard of only having 28 days gestation.
Annabelle had three kits last night. She ate most of one, one was dead and the other one was so cold I thought it...

My mom had to get her tonsils taken out when I had mine taken out. My pediatrician that I had told my mom she should have had hers removed when she was a child. They say that the older you are the worse it is, but my mother had no problem. I actually had more trouble with my recovery than she...
Congrats!! I'm glad I could help!! A lot of times they're mixed breed rabbits (meat mutts), but that doesn't really matter to me.
I'm breeding for color and just learning how to tell genetics for color.
Breeding for meat, I feel like I wouldn't mind mixed breeds, either.
