Bad day in the bunny barn

[alsea1]

Today was barn clean up.
First thing I find is a nest box full of dead bunnies. Ten. Ugh.
Near as I can tell, the nest was not done well enough and the got cold.
I will have to check each nest more carefully.
Other than that all went well. I got cages cleaned and trays dumped. Note to self. Don't procrastinate on dumping the trays. LOL
Ten. Ugh. What a loss.
Well, I guess animal farming is tough sometimes.
Rebred the ol girl and hope for better luck next time.

[alsea1]

Yes I do!!
Especially since I could have prevented it.

Oh, dang. So sorry!

I lost 11 on Monday because they got cold. Sorry for your loss.

It is frustrating isn't it.
Eleven. wow. Nice litter size.
What breed may I ask

 

[new2thecoop]

Californian doe, she was cross bred to a New Zealand white. She had them on the wire, but it was her first time, so I'll give her one more chance.
