Acorn's progress *UD new pics 25/11*

silverrabbit

Mama Doe
V thin 7 month old little pregnant doe desperate for reassurance. She is very sweet and I am very worried for her :(



Big belly (freaking me out as it keeps changing shape :shock: )



And looking skinny :cry: her hip bones really stick out, without her bump she would look so tiny :(

She's so thin :( poor dear. Was she another free-ads/gumtree bun?

If she isn't getting them already, unlimited junior or breeder pellets may be a good idea, try to bulk her up a bit. And maybe some alfalfa?

She's on SS Junior atm (that's A&P in her bowl before I replaced it.. I was expecting a boy, not a skinny pregnant bun :cry: ), going to get some alfalfa hay tomo though not sure where i'll find it as haven't seen it around. No, OH's friend went to pick up a hutch he bought from FB for his bantams as a hide and the rabbit was inside it and owner didn't want "him" back :cry: this explains it all..

I really hate people :evil: how can you let an animal get so thin!
 
Aww she looks a sweetie! Hope it goes smoothly having the babies and hope she has a bit of time to put some weight on before they come
 
Bless her.:love: Sending vibes that all goes well for her. When do you expect the babies?

I'm not sure, I haven't had a pregnant rabbit for over ten years so my knowledge isn't great (read zilch! that was an accident and even vet thought she wasn't pregnant so the kits were a total surprise!). Comparing to the other doe who is around 18 days gone (if the other owner was telling the truth that is) she feels huge and there is a lot of movement, so i'm guessing she is quite close :( I just hope she has a few days to gain a little weight so she is stronger :( I'm hoping she will make a nest at some point

Thanks for all the love and support, Acorn really appreciates it and accepts pellets on behalf of you all ;) :love:
 
My Lord, just read both these threads....
WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE??

:evil:

Okay, okay...and breathe!

Of course Acorn can have all the loving up, getting healthy and having an easy time with babies vibes I can muster, poor wee thing!
((((((((((((((((((((((((Super snuggles for Acorn)))))))))))))))))))))) xxxx

silverrabbit, you are an angel! :love: So much on your plate but still room for one more (or possibly more) you are a hero! :D xxxx
 
Awww, poor Acorn. I hope she heals well and delivers her babies with ease. At least she is in good hands now! :thumb:
 
Sending Acorn love and vibes, hope everything goes well for her. Thank goodness you took her in, I cannot believe some people :cry:

Seems like you are starting a rescue, or were you already a rescue anyway? :love:
 
This is SO sad, that poor rabbit, 7 months :shock:

I'm just so happy she's with you now :love: I hope her previous owners get hid with a massive dollop of karma.

Many fattening up and strength vibes coming her way and masses of ...:thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:
To you for being such a wonderful person :love:
 
Lots of love for the lovely little Acorn. Hope all goes well with the birth when the time comes x
 
Thanks all, she has put on weight today :love: not loads but it all helps! She has been a lot quieter today and sits in her little nest of hay but at least she is resting and knows she is safe :)

Pellets are being increased and her poops are so much better. I bought her some lovely hay/flower mix that has alfalfa in it and it smells amazing.. I want to eat it :lol:
