Another baby rabbit question...

serendipity

Warren Scout
Our baby is now 12 days old and seems to be doing well.

I've noticed that mum has pulled back the nest a bit though, or maybe baby has I am not sure. Whereas before it was all covered up and not visible, it is now in a hollow but with no covering.

Is this normal? Is it just its getting bigger and therefore now it has it's eyes open she has cleared space for the baby to look around maybe?

It is incredibly cute, I'd hate to lose it now!
 
all my rabbits that hv had litters have done this too, i think they are just incurage them to come of there nest hehe

sorry i cant spell:D
 
My rabbit done this when she had a litter of babys, because by about 12 days old babys have thier eyes own and generally moving out of the nest for a little while :D
 
Thank you. Had a peek this afternoon and it was fast asleep and all snuggled again so I guess it is just becoming more active, phew!
