All kits are blobs?

[Finnisher]

Hi,

Rabbit momma is due this week and I found one blob on Monday/Tuesday and 4 more blobs today...
They seem to be whole kits, but they don't seem to be fully formed... At least one kit was a wet gelatinous mess. This doe has already had a successful batch of kits before, I don't know why she is giving birth to blobs and not creating a nest. The blobs were at least a foot apart from each other. The doe and buck are both large breeds, so no peanuts.

What's going on?

Thanks

Wow, sorry to hear that. Watching the thread to see what's up.

How many kits did she have in her last litter? Has she had any stress?
One thing that comes to mind is retained kits. Rabbits can retain kits from the previous pregnancy and they can come out when she next kindles. mummified like.
or maybe stress and they are partially reabsorbed.
?

11 kits previous litter, 2 died from starvation. This litter that's all blobs is 4 months after her 'first' litter. Meaning first that she had with me, previous owner said she had kits before.
She was moved maybe 6 weeks ago to a new location. None of them seemed mummified i think. She isn't in a cage by herself btw. She is in a large room, with her 9 previous kits (they're 4 months now). There are also 20 chickens, but there is plenty of room. Maybe not enough places to hide? I did make some spots for her to hide, maybe need to make more.

I will isolated her tomorrow and see if maybe she passes the rest.

Is bleeding of the vulva common when giving birth? Especially since it's not her first time.

Also day 28 was Tuesday, she gave birth on day 28 last time.
