    @mikiz I'm going to cull her it is too much worry when she stops eating and drinking about a week before she kindles and since I am having o supplement the kits it isn't worth it for me to keep her. I was planning on selling her anyway after this litter was weaned now I can't justify selling...

    I'm still supplementing a few of the small ones as I don't think she is quite up to taking care of all of them but I'm so glad she is drinking again

    When I checked this morning she had drank maybe an ounce. I put her veggies in a water bowl and she drank a little more trying to get them out and she was eating hay as I left. About half the babies looked fat so I think I'll be buying a bottle or dropper after work and supplementing some of the...

    I've tried all of that. I gave her a bottle won't drink it, gave her a bowl still won't drink it. My water always has ACV in it. I did take the water bottle and squirt some in her mouth but she wasn't a fan. I also checked her teeth and they seemed a little long so we trimmed them.

    this morning I had to cull a two of the kits they were completely blind from their eye lashes folding inward :( They just weren't thriving and I couldn't justify getting them to grow out weights. My buck may be sold and I have feelers out for a new one so hopefully I sell him first I just don't...

    Does won't take

    Some rabbits just don't want to breed in winter. Sometimes adding a light on a timer to make their day longer helps

    @mikiz They are bred for meat and I do sell a few to offset the cost of feed. My biggest thing is I don't want the kits to suffer. If I can get a different buck that doesn't carry the gene then I they won't have to now I also know that finding another buck without the gene might be hard and the...
