I believe she will be due either tonight or tomorrow. I removed the kts last night and they are all doing very well this morning; eating and playing. :) Thank you for your help Promiseacres.
I haven't received a lot of feedback so I went with my gutfeeling and removed the kits last night. This was my fear that she would protect a new litter by killing these kits. I am a new bunny owner and am still learning. My female jumped the divider I have separating him and her as this was...
