I have a doe due soon and I caught her gathering hay 3 days ago, I moved her into her birthing area (nest box, plenty of hay, greens, fresh water, away from her sisters) but now she isn't trying to make a nest anymore. This is my first time with rabbits so I'm wondering if this is normal with rabbits? I'm just worried is all, she did start creating a nest but the second day in her birthing area she stopped and just lounges on top of her nest box, eats the hay, eats everything else, regular rabbit stuff. I do know she growls like crazy at my buck Ferd and will not allow me to gently palpate. This will be her first litter.
I tried asking this on several other rabbit forums and Facebook groups to no avail, my threads either got locked or I got a warning, and plenty of rude people bickering at me and talking to me like I am stupid. I got two of my rabbits from a show, they are good quality, papered, I'm currently looking for a papered Holland lop doe, hopefully I can mention that here without being lynched. If not could someone link me to a reliable rabbit forum where people (the users) are not crazy animal rights activists? Really, one thread on another forum got over 46 views but no one answered except a moderaror who repeadetly stated I should get my rabbits altered. I wonder if these people use picket signs at rabbit shows too? I respect your right to rescue but please respect my right to a hobby and new found passion. Thank you.
