Hi Everyone,
We discovered yesterday that one of our rabbits has had four babies (we believed we had two male rabbits). Unfortunately she has had them and made a nest in the run. Last night I made sure it was dry and warm enough however I am concerned about leaving them here long term especially as the weather seems to be getting wetter and colder. Would it be ok to move them into the hutch? I think this would be warmer and safer for them. Also I immediately separated the male, should I allow him to meet the babies briefly? Or keep separated? I will be calling the vets today to book an appointment to get him neutered asap.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
