Hi my work thought it would be nice to have some rabbits so they rescued 5 rabbits from a few different places. 1 pair of sisters, 1 pair of speyed sisters and a single stray doe. Or so they were told. The manager of that area came to me as I do have quite a knowledge of keeping rabbits because 1 of them was pulling out its fur. So I checked them and found we actually had 3 girls and 2 boys! Both males clearly un-neutered and they were fighting not pulling its own hair out. As I had been told by the rescue centre the 1st 2 had been speyed we only took 1 female and 1 male out and seperated them. Obviously she had a litter. Then one morning we find out actually the other 2 arn't speyed as we found 4 dead kits in the hutch. Not knowing which doe they belonged to we separated the last 3 as the likelihood was the other one hadn't been speyed either and was pregnant aswell. Both of those does built nests and I thought the one who had already birthed a litter was confused and a few days later there was babies, in BOTH nests. How is this possible? Can they stagger the birth over a few days? Also can they carry from 2 different donors?
