Elderly doe making a nest

abbymarysmokey

Wise Old Thumper
I got Jill from Kirkby Pet Welfare earlier in the year. Her previous owner said she was 7 or 8 years old when he signed her over. I've recently bonded her to a neutered male rabbit, and this seems to have made her go into a false pregnancy...she keeps pulling her fur out and is making a nest in a bag of hay :roll:

I've never had a doe this old go through a phantom pregnancy. Does this suggest that she's younger than her previous owner said...or could an 8 year old doe still be this hormonal?
