I posted a couple of weeks ago about my sisters accidentally pregnant rabbit.
I found out that she was advised by her vet, that should the mother reject the babies (she hasn't given birth yet), she should just leave them alone and not intervene at all. As the chances are they'd die anyway.
Does this sound right to you? I understand the thinking behind it, but I'm sure I've read about baby buns being hand reared on here. Aren't you supposed to at least try?
