So my rabbit first bred February 28th but I don’t know if that’s really the day she got pregnant so honestly I don’t know when she’s due but her stomach is huge last week I could feel the baby kits I think but this week I’m not sure maybe I’m just not good at palpating. Her stomach is half firm half soft she’s making a nest and pulling fur but still no baby. She’s eating less then usual for about couple days now but I don’t if she’s just eating more when I don’t watch her. But besides that she’s perfectly normal very affectionate always chasing me etc. I’m just not sure what to do because when I put her with the male to rebreed he just grooms her doesn’t even try anything! Please someone help me

That's 6 weeks ago - unless you bred her again during the last 4 weeks imo she isn't pregnant and that nest building is just a false pregnancy. She does look quite well fed though, which might be connected - internal fat can make breeding a lot more difficult. Palpating - useless for me, even after 10 years I see better what's going on than I can feel, also my does hate it anyway.

I don't breed rabbits I consider pets, enjoying feeding them a little too well is just one of the reasons.

I feed her about half a cup of pellets and 2 cups of leafy greens everyday with unlimited hay I used to feed her a lot more and she wasn’t as fat which is why I’m so incertain also no she was in direct contact with the male until day 23 after the first time
