anyone with litters due in march? :) i do!

[MyLittleParadise]

My American Spot/Hotot kindled March 1st. The babies are American Spot/Hotot/Silver Fox. A lot of breeds but the oldest doe I have is a really good breeder. Last batch had 10 and all lived. This is typical for here. But the does I kept from one of her litters doesn't have much luck. If you touch her babies she'll quit on them. And she pulls all the fur out of the box. I'll try to post a picture of them.

Cassie finally kindled a litter yesterday. 3 big very active kits. Way to go girl. Has anyone seen kits so big around the neck? Is this ok?

Martha had her babies! I heard that when they are first timers the kits don't live very often, is this true?

Well she was a good mom, but she didn't pull enough fur and they got too cold.

I have two does I bred on Feb.4, so they should be having any day now. I'm a little worried, since there bellies are real big and they are both a little overdue. The buck is alrger than them, so I'm afraid it might cause problems when birthing.
One of them is a first-timer, so I hope all goes well!

Oh, and everybody else, congratulations on the babies! I hope all goes well for you guys!

So it's been 38 days ? How much do you feed ?

 

[Akpahsj]

Well, we usually give them 1/2 cup of rabbit ration (co-op brand) and some hay, though we don't keep track of how much. They usually use most of it for their nests. I'm freaking out, I hope when I go out there there's babies. But it seems the younger doe is very nervous, and she's always breathing hard and seems scared.

i hope everything is alright with your doe (((hugs)))


went out at about 7:30PM tonight and my dutch doe had pulled lotsa fur and is doing a new round of nesting. fingers crossed!
gonna go out and check her again in a few. my first litter, not hers. she's had a few litters. i'm definitely nervous and antsy though.
