Greetings @MarkRahn from the front range in ColoradoWelcome to BYH, glad you joined us. We have quite a few active bunny folks and I'm sure some will be along shortly to say HI and help with your question... This post would have probably been better placed in the rabbit section under: http://www.backyardherds.com/forums/birthing-weaning-and-raising-young-rabbits.85/ I'm not a bunny person (yet) but just to clarify:
You have a doe you have bred 3 times and she has kindled (had kits) 3 times. The first pregnancy (kindle) ended with miscarriage of the kits. The 2nd time she kindled on the wire (outside the nesting box) and all the kits died. I'm assuming from your post that she never pulled fur on either of the first 2. On this most recent, her 3rd kindle, she again had the kits outside the box but did pull fur, but once again all kits died. Did the kits from kindle #2 & #3 look healthy? Did they die from cold/exposure? did the doe kill them? Did the doe come into milk?
Some other info that might be pertinent is; age of the doe, health/weight, breed, cage size/area available, nesting box size... I'll tag a few folks who may be able to help: @BlessedWithGoats @goatgurl @Samantha drawz @Bunnylady @Shorty @Pastor Dave and there are quite a few others. I hope they can provide some guidance/help for you.
Thank you very much for the welcome and posting advice. I am new to the forum posting/interweb stuff so it is always a learning experience for me. Hey, I learned something new today even at my age. And thank you for the tags(?) to fellow members of this forum. We are new with the rabbit raising and have many things to learn
Thanks again
Mark
