Hello! I have started backyard rabbits and chickens this year.
We've already had one successful kindling from a doe last week and this week another doe is due (tomorrow) and I had put her nestbox in a week early because the other doe had pulled fur a whole week early (but kindled the expected date).
However! This doe keeps pulling anything placed in there out (hay/straw) and/or poops and pees all over it. I tried switching it to a different part of her pen and cleaning it out, trying again - same result.
Any thoughts or advice?
Should I just clean it out again tonight and tomorrow until she kindles and hope she keeps out once she kindles? No fur pulling or anything yet.
Thanks!
