My Blackie just had babies and I'm a new bunnymom...I was wondering if anyone could reply to me who knows alot so Idon't do something incredibly stupid....I would appreciate any help Ican get...Thanks
 
huny what would your like to know. Iam a bunny mom 2x's now and can try to help you in whatever youneed. Congratulations
 
This was completely a surprise.....While myblackie was outside during the wintertime she got out of her cage, Iusually keep them up on the porch in their own cages but the door brokeand thus she got out. Well I then found a dead baby bunny so I broughther inside thinking she would have more....she didn't so I kept her inand two weeks ago it got really nice so we put them, Blackie, BlackFoot and Jake out in their own cages which is where they will liveuntil winter comes again...Anyway this afternoon I went out to checkthem for food and water and found a bunch of hair in the hay...notfiguring she would be having anymore and it was her just pulling hairfor summer, I pulled up the hair and found 8 babies.....Now Imwondering what to do....I read all the postings on here about babiesbut I just scared that because I touched them she will not feed them orpossibly hurt them....What should I do now?
