The Wabbit thread!!!! Anything about rabbits

[ShellyBear]

Hey guys so I found my polish Doe shoving shavings up in her little house, I have an idea of whats happening but. . .
That entire area was covered in a small layer of shavings.

Maybe she's making a nest?

 

[ShellyBear]

That's what I was thinking but she's only on day 8 of her pregnancy.

 

[eggbert420]

Usually they will wait until a few days before they give birth. Is she pulling hair?

 

[ShellyBear]

A bit, not a lot though.

 

[eggbert420]

Is it her first time?

 

[ShellyBear]

Nope, she's had about 5 litters before.

 

[eggbert420]

Does she always start nesting early? Mine are sneaky they will pull hair and a few days later ill find kits.

 

[ShellyBear]

I'm not sure. . . we rescued her but the owner said she has had at least 5 litters. She's perfectly healthy, eats and drinks plenty and is due Easter though. There wasa time where she wasn't even breed and she still made a full blown out nest,

She could be having a false pregnancy, but I've never heard of having a false pregnancy during a real one. Are you sure the breeding took? Try palpating in a couple days, to be sure.
