I found a site that said they usually have 4-6 kits. So, she probably is just carrying a larger litter. Let us know how it goes!
Bigger may mean few peanuts this time or none at all. :fl

Can't wait to hear. :) And can't wait to see your future champs!
I really hope there are less peanuts! My other doe, Hufflepuff, had 6 (really 5 1/2) kits last time, but 3 were DOA and 2 were peanuts. This time, I can really feel the difference in my rabbits belly. I can feel at least 5 good sized kits just waiting to get out.


Do rabbits sometimes kindle in the afternoon?

I'm really not sure. I always thought it would be early in the morning. Just remember, no experience here, only what I've read.

As I posted on another thread about an excited anticipated goat birth. Anticipation...she's making me wait. She will deliver when she's ready. :)

usually in the morning or evening, but i have had does kindle in the afternoon also. I find that my does kindle earlier, usually on the 30th day, when they have larger litters and on the 31st day for smaller litters. Also, the time you bred the doe could effect the time of day she kindles. So, really she can kindle any time of day.

She still has not had her kits. She built a nest, but has not pulled fur yet (I put some in there though and she arranged it how she wanted it) I attached the link to the live video feed of her.

Hey, i've seen a lot of videos on ustream of puppies and rabbits and stuff live, and I (not being too up to date on all the new technology) was just wondering how that all works. Can you just use any webcam to make a live video? I was interested in doing something similar to what you did with your doe and maybe set up a webcam to watch my expecting mothers instead of running out to the bunny barn a million times a day when they're due, lol. Also what kind of software would you need to do something like that?

No software, Just a webcam and a laptop. Make an account and click broadcast. It will automatically find your webcam. Hope that helps!

I tried watching the live video, it played the commercial, but then just stayed black. Is it working?
