Our rabbit had babies on Sat. the 8th. We have a large 6x6 ft. pen but also have 2 one month old babies and the male rabbit in and out of the pen. The female rabbit has dug a burrow and had the kits inside. She also has covered them up with dirt to protect them I\'m sure but will the kits die? We have taken the other rabbits out for the evening but in during the day. I\'m just concerned about the life of the newborn kits. Thank you, I\'m becoming Rabbit Crazy.
Well...the kits will probably be OK, but you will find it difficult to monitor them very well. This is why I prefer to have the doe kindle in a nest box.
