How long ago was he neutered? Neutered males can still be fertile for 4 weeks.

Well, it is my understanding that in order tohave broken babies - at least one parent MUST be a broken. (Brokengenes don't hide themselves).

So if you have a broken baby - we know he's the daddy of at least one baby.

well Snoopy betternot be the dad or i'll be pretty mad since i was told he was fixed orthe SPCA will be getting a not so nice call from me.

there were alot of different colored rabbits that were all from the same litter when i got blue, and same with cooter.

so theres no way that blue's parents could have been broken? well we'll find out when we see the ears since cooter is lop eared

It wouldn't matter if Blue's parents werebroken. In order to have a broken baby - one parent (direct line) hasto be broken. Since Blue isn't broken - that means the dadhas to be broken.

Im so sorry to hear that. How is the remaining baby doing? Is her belly full and is mom keeping her warm?

This is what a well fed baby looks like:

His tummy is well rounded, and you can see the milk in histummy. Not all babies will have the little white patch, butthey should look very round in the belly.

Mommy rabbits will normally feed once or twice a day. The dothis by standing over the nest. The mothers will also not liewith their babies like cats and dogs do. They are preyanimals, and lying with your babies will attract predators.

As long as the babies are warm and round looking, they will be okay.
