Oh wait i for got to say we just warmed the other baby bun up, and it is fine now.

 

[BSAR]

That is good. So the two are both alive? Are there only two?

 

[Becca]

Are you sure? Just like that?

Okay....

I would leave them be for a while but do you think Mum bun has more kits or do you think thats it?

May be. she is acting normal.

 

[Becca]

Has she fed them yet? (Do they have ping-pong bellies?)

 

[lemon]

No i don't think so, it is hard too look in nest box, she still atacks us when we try to open the nest box.

 

[Becca]

Well at least shes being protective, what do you mean 'open' the nest box? Can mum get in alright?

Your doing really well, listening to everything we say! Well done. Keep it up

 

[irishbunny]

I wouldn't worry about them being fed yet and you probably will never see her feeding them because they only fed them when no one is around and only around twice a day.

 

[lemon]

Sorry i mean the top, she can in by the side.

Good goood, I think you should just leave her now, what time is it where you are?

 

[lemon]

4:13 PM

 

[Becca]

Okay then, I would check on her before you go to bed and make sure everything is okay

 

[lemon]

Ok.

 

[Flashy]

Can she stand up in the nest box? Is the hole for her to get in high up enough so the kits cant accidently wriggle out?

Hopefully she will feed them within 24 hours of birth. Sounds like she is going to be a stressy mum.

No the kits cant wriggle out i will check on her after we eat.

 

[Flashy]

If she hasn;t fed them within 24 hours it might be worth removing the lid of the nestbox to see if she has been struggling due to that.

 

[lemon]

Auctaly we took the top off for good.

 

[irishbunny]

When you check them tomorrow have a close look at them to see if they have ''ping-pong bellies'' which means nice roundbellies like a ping pong, this means she has fed them, if they have sunken/thin stomachs then she hasn't fed them.

Teddy is a little young ( yes thats him as my avater.)

I'm confused. Are there babies inthe nest or aren't there?

Either way you should be checking the nest box everyday (yes touching the babies) to be sure they are in good health.
