Not so False pregnancy

[delusional]

MY baby! Yes, that's one that I'm definitely keeping. I don't know as far as the others go as yet.

I've only noticed the orangey colour on a couple of them. But that's not to say it isn't there on the others. To be honest all the bluey ones just look alike! I can only tell the little flakey guy apart from the rest.. because of his bald cheeks! I will have a proper look at all the colours and stuff tomorrow.

Oh and that's just a shadow, no eyes opening yet. I can't wait until they do though!

How old will they be when their eyes do start to open?

 

[polly]

eyes usually open 10 to 12 days

How is Mama doing?

PIGGY BACK RIDE, you're doing it backwards!

Looks like they all have a bit of orangey colour on them. Although the blues seem to have less than the blacks - is that because their colour all over is diluted? (That's what blue is right? Diluted black?) But does that mean they're all otters?

kherrmann3 - Cordie is doing really well! She seems so much more settled about the whole situation now.

Now I have a couple of questions around cages - first of all, for until I get Nigel neutered/the girls spayed (and to stop him biting other boy bunnies, who he hates) I want to get some small mesh to go over the ground floor layer of his NIC cage. What's small enough that no more accidents can happen? Will 1cm mesh be small enough? Or should I go for 0.5cm? Or is that not small enough either?

Aand.. I want to put a shelf in Cordie's cage. She keeps sitting on the cardboard box I put in to make the nest more 'private' but the top of it is caving in now because she chews it as well.
So I want to put a shelf in for her to jump up on. My question is really about the safetly of the babies with a shelf. When they start to come out of the nest, when will they be able to jump up there themselves?
I have the panels from Screwfix around the whole bottom of the cage, and the bottom of the split - they're the one's with the really small diamond holes - so no escapes/heads getting stuck etc. But the top half is regular grids.
If the babies are going to be able to jump up, and still be small enough to fit through or get their head through (and will be at some point, if Nigel is daddy and his size when we brought him home is anything to go by) the I'll need to cover the top half of the split and the grids to either side with small mesh, won't I?

And while I'm in question mode...
I obviously want to rebond Raspberry and Cordie when this is all over. And I obviously want to keep at least a couple of the babies, don't know exactly how many. But if I keep a girly or two (if the litter's not all boys, of course..) what are the chances I could keep her/them with Cordie and bond them all together with Raspberry?

Pictures in a minute. I uploaded them hours ago and then got caught up reading another post while they were uploading and forgot all about them!

They truely are the cutest baby bunnies ever to be born.

I see the tan markings on all of them, I think? They all look like otters to me. I love the blues.

LOVE the new pics, aww! That black otter dude sure looks like he's got a lot of personality!

How many days old are they now? They look so plump and delightful, I has a strange urg to cram them all into my pocket and run away.

:run:

I think I'm addicted to theses wee bubbas I was in my science exam today and was thinking about them lol. They are just adorable!

We have an eye open!

[align=left]Just one kit, and just one eye, but it's open! :biggrin2:

And... can anyone guess who just had to be the first one to see the world for how comfy it really is?

[align=center]Yep.. that's right...

[align=left]I read somewhere that you should change the nest when the babies start opening their eyes, to stop them getting eye infections? Should I do that? Or is that another load of rubbish from the rubbish bin that is the internet?
