pregnant doe...nesting box?

[kada6305]

I just recently got mini lop doe & Buck. the previous owners have had them for a month and didn't have time for them. they were housed together. I felt her today and she is pregnant but I have no way of telling just how far along is she. when should I give her a nesting box? she is very calm and doesn't move around much. hates being picked up. What do you guys think? of course I have them separated now in different cages.

I would give her nest box now. Never let it catch you off guard! Babies could be born on the wire flooring and fall through. Have had that happen before. never again!

I agree, don't take a chance!

Just another thought: if she is far off from her date, she will use it for a restroom. Change it out often until she starts the nest making!
