Cool what breed are your babies

 

[JimJam]

They are 3/4 nz Flemish Giant, mum is 1/2 nz Flemish 1/2 Lop and takes the Lop side (only weighs 3.5 kg and has Lop pattern but doesn’t have Lop ears) dad is pure nz Flemish Giant. I can definitely see some bigger kits and some smaller kits. 4 1/2 days old

Very fun

 

[JimJam]

Yes it is! The photo is of them just after feed, they come off mum when she’s finished and don’t end up in the nest which is very annoying! I put them back in the nest but they seem too hot and cuddle up outside of nest...

This is my first time with babies except I lost my last litter at two on day three any big steps I should know about they are holland lop

 

[JimJam]

I haven’t done holland lops before, but generally with all litters: make sure they are staying warm (after a week they are capable of staying warm themselves) and that they have round tummies. Other then that, there’s not much else you can do but wait till they grow cuter everyday!

i would be concerned about the sneezing... the babes are SOOOO cute!

 

[amycrow98]

Do you think it would spread to the babies

 

[JimJam]

Personally I would say it wouldn’t spread to the babies, but I’ve never heard of a rabbit sneezing repeatedly... maybe some research will answer why your rabbit is sneezing?

How’s mama doing ? And the babies?

 

[JimJam]

I don’t know about amycrow98 baby rabbits, but my 8 plus mum are doing fantastic! Opened their eyes today (9 days old) and getting fluffier by the day! I’ll post pictures tomorrow morning

 

[Cookiemonster]

wow

 

[amycrow98]

Mamma is sneezing a lot but. Babies are fine it is day 11 and eyes aren't open what should I do

 

[Cookiemonster]

wait til day 12 if they are open then take a soft wet cloth and gently rub the eyes... this will help open them.. make sure to use warm water

 

[amycrow98]
