Not sure about the doe, but the kits can be jabed from 6 weeks old.


another fortnight then :cry: and how do i get a doe down to the vets whos nursing two week old kits :shock: :cry: :cry:
 
I wouldn't myxi jab the doe until she is older, I'm not sure it would be safe in a nursing doe + I wouldn't want to stress her and her kits out.

yep them they all have to wait another six weeks and how do you get 13 rabbits that all need to stay together tot he vets :shock:
 
In a ferplast type cage I guess! Won't the boys be separated out of the litter by then? All sounds like a bit of a mission though :shock:

:lol: That is a lot of rabbits to deal with!
Unless half of the rabbits are taken one day and the other half are taken on a different day maybe? :?
 
aaaah didnt realise you were talking about that bunny and babies. hmmm maybe once the older babies are old enough they could get jabbed. Then when the 2nd litter are old enough they could go with mum for jabs? Or ask the vet to come to you?
 
I have previously advised against getting a 'feeding' mother vaccinated and to wait until the youngest babies are old enough to get vaccinated, the older group of babies will probably be weaned by this stage and hopefully will be off to their new homes around this date. I would get the older babies done as soon as they are six weeks old.
