Pregnant?

Kellylou89

Warren Scout
Well .. i introduced Ellie i week or so ago, i took Ellie in (mini Lop) from a woman who no longer wanted her who also said "she is possibly pregnant because my buck managed to jump into her run and mate with her while i was in the garden, as i walked out he let out a grunt and fell off".
Well today she randomly start pulling her hair from her stomach and legs and making a nest .. she would stop lay down for bit and then start again and now she has stopped and is back to normal and gone to eat some food, i have checked her nest before i covered them all up for bed and wont go look again untill i uncover them again in the morning.
Could she deffo be pregnant and would this be normal pregnancy behaviour the stopping and starting i mean? (I know nest building and hair pulling is)
 
ive had a pregnant rabbit before but i knew she was pregnant, when i get told she is possibly pregnant it throws me off and then signs come and its like well ok is this real or phantom lol
 
Gave Birth

Ellie just gave birth to what i can see as being 3 Kits within the last hour .. i went and checked on her before my tea to see if she was ok and she was in her hide and had pulled more hair, after my tea i checked on her again and she was out as i peaked through the window .. Went in and checked her and her nest and there lies Kits .. Fingers crossed she makes a good mom :) she is a sweetheart!
 
ooo so not a phantom then!!! :lol:

good luck vibes to both mummies!!! (can't wait to see photos when they are a bit bigger!)

Very cute.

Please don't use flash around tiny kits though, it can seriously damage their eyes.
