I knew Bracken would be giving birth anyday soon but I was still really shocked when I opened her hutch and saw 4little hairless babys. She'd given birth out of the nest box but there seemed to be plenty of fur on the ground for them so I left her alone with them for a while. When I came back to lock her up for the night I checked the babys who started to feel cold, I knew that if I didnt put them into the box they'd die, so I rubbed my hands on Bracken and some hay then placed them in the box along with her fur, they were sooo tiny!

I came down in the morning and one of the babys was out of the nest box and had died in the night, I was a bit upset but I promiced myself that I wouldnt get too atached with any of them incase they didnt make it or when I have to sell them. Its getting really cold here now so I asked my parents would we be able to bring Bracken and the kits inside, so off we went to spend another million pound at pets at home (we'd still keep them afloat even if we were the only customers, were in there everyday) So we bought a cage, it's not massive but shes only in there of a night.

All 3 kits seem to be doing well, it's amazing how big they've grown in the last few days. Bracken seems to be a good mum apart from standing on them, which is pretty worrying, but I can only do my best. Hopefully I'l have some pics up soon.
