my doe had 10 kits about a week ago. Now this is her 3rd litter and for some reason they are scattered all over the cage when i check on them. Most of the time dead. Never seen this before. What gives. I could see if it was her first litter but its not and she has never done this before. Any help please....jim

Is it possible there are any rodents creeping around at night, stressing her out? I had a rabbit that would do that & started setting some traps, just on the off chance that my theory was correct. Unfortunately it was. Odd thing was, some of the other does that delivered didnt get stressed over it & raised their kits just fine.
Good luck in finding the problem.
