Why is Trogdor a "former" family member?

Trogdor was a rabbit we adopted out from a previous litter to family friends. He was claimed the day he was born.
That photo was taken the night we took Vader (now known as Poe) over for meet and greet. As expected, he stayed. - Thread starter

Edit:
5! Either I counted too soon or I didn't dig deep enough in the nesting box to find the other 3.

Baby update. #5 is still overdue. She's going to the vet tomorrow if we don't have some action.
Pics of the other litters
Holland Lop: 5x Black tort. Doe is Black Tory, Buck is a smutty Sable Point. First litter for this doe, and she seems to be doing OK so far.
Netherland Dwarf:
#1. 3x Black. Doe is a Champagne and Buck is a Sable Point. This litter is our first pedigree litter and I'm hopeful we have some showable kits. Dad has a BOB and a BOS leg under his belt. Since Mom's a champagne she's not showable, but she has great form, so fingers crossed.
ND Litter #2. 3x Black Otter. Doe is BO and Buck is black.
ND litter #3. 2x Broken black marten or Broken Silver Marten, one Black otter or black silver marten, one chinchilla(? She looks less brown in person). Doe is a chestnut, buck is a broken silver marten

Well, slight setback. I had to take 3 kits from my first time mom Holland Lop. She was only feeding 1 of the 5 and it doesn't seem like she's got enough milk. one of them died in my hands as I was trying to get it warmed up and fed, I left the one who's obviously been eating with her, and the other 3 I fostered out with our 3 Netherlands who all delivered the same day. I'm sort of guarded on their prospects at this point.

Lost another one. I was not sure it'd make it, was pretty lethargic last night when I was checking on it and wouldn't eat. The others seem to be doing OK. full bellies and staying warm.

that's a bummer, hard to get them back once they start fading.

So sorry @Sundragons. The more I read about raising rabbits the more I think it isn't as easy as "They breed like rabbits".
