Easter arrivals

Rabbits Fern & Bramble delivered their litters on Good Friday, Fern's litter consists of six bunnies, while Bramble delivered a small litter of three. Below are a couple of videos of the new rabbit kits at one day of age. Although many believe a rabbit will abandon it's litter if they are handled, this is not the case, not even with wild rabbits, if you come across a nest, leave it alone, it may seem abandoned, but mom will be hiding nearby. Unlike dogs, rabbits only visit their nest to nurse the young once or twice a day, causing concern among people that the mom isn't coming back.

Easter Eggs!

My ladies are laying more eggs then ever, no doubt we will be having eggs this Easter.

I also have our first two rabbit litters of 2013 due any day.  Rabbits can deliver as early as day 28 (which is today) to as late as days 30-32.  When I was out to feed and water this morning the two mommas-to-be were busy filling their nest boxes with hay and soft downy fur that they pull from their tummies.
A very festive Easter here.
