I would put her back in the nest box.
Mine is 11 days today and eyes are open, but still not coming out of the nest box.
She probably fell out on accident. Plus, she can't see to move out of mom's way. Nest box is the safest place for her right now.

You guys should join ARBA, you get a terrific book " Raising Better Rabbits & Cavies" , which I got in the mail today and have been looking at the info about color genetics. Very interesting. Tell them I sent you.

i'm guessing dewlaps are the large piece of skin/meat/fat that hangs from their neck?

are silver foxes supposed to have that? mine has a small one - - am i overfeeding her?

No, it's fine. A dewlap in a buck is only a fault, there's no problem with a doe having one.

It is pregnancy related most likely, the dewlap is where a lot of the hair for the nest comes from.

LOL I noticed that Coco's practically went away after she gave birth. I'm learning so much by kind of stumbling into it. Lol

Thanks. She was out again a little bit ago, but I put her back. She is 10 days old and hasn't opened her eyes, but I think I detect a little slit of eye, maybe my imagination.
