I tried to do a search b/c I know several people have gone through this same thing before but for some reason it didn't find anything.
Anyways, a friend's friend found baby bunnies last night, after her dog disturbed the nest or something like that. Putting them back was (for some reason) not an option, dunno if it's in an area where the dog would keep getting to them or something like that but he called me, apparently because he has great faith in my animal raising abilities.
*lol*
From what he told me, they don't have their eyes open yet so they must be very young. I know the chances of them making it are very slim but I want to give it a shot. I did a bit more reading and found that it's best to feed them only twice a day, morning and night with diluted formula (I will feed them goat's milk). Basically I was just hoping there's some people on here that have successfully raised baby rabbits that young and could give me some pointers.
I'd greatly appreciate any support and/or pointers as to what to do/not to do.
I am prepping myself that the three bunnies might not make it, but nontheless, I know I will be heartbroken if they die.
Thanks for any support!
