doe is kindling on the wire

[Ebers]

Ok I just checked on her & she's got a squirming lil pile of babies in there now & she's pulled a good amount of fur so I put the 1st baby back in with her. I think samantha was right I think it caught her off guard & surprised her when she had the 1st one

I am glad she had the rest in her nest and did what she was supposed to! I know that instant feeling of panic all too well when they do something wrong like that. Congrats on the new little members I hope all goes smoothly from now on.

It was crazy I ran in the house & told my wife to come out & help me then met her at the door & said no nevermind stay here cause the doe's real nervous actn it was crazy for a second but I sat down & posted the issue & had time to calm down.... I'm sure me bein excited wasn't helping my doe any either but I was shook up when I found the kit in the floor under her cage

Ok well as far as I can tell she had 11... 1 died in the nest box but the kit that I found on the floor is doin great & apparently she ate 1 cause all I found was the head, if she raises the 9 I'll definitely consider it a successful experience

That's a pretty good litter!

Aww! Congratulations!! Good job helping the little one!
Sorry about the two that didn't make it.

I know ppl that cull down to a litter of 8 but I just can't do that if they have the will or ability to survive they get to live...

Right up till the time you "off" them, skin them, gut them, cook them and EAT them! Yum!

Just like Hansel & Gretel. Fed well and pampered & then into the oven they go.
