 Bunny Babies
[/color][/size][/font]Hello,
I am completly new to this so please answer in detail. I have a pregnant doe thats 6 months old and she has bred with a 2 year old male, I know the age gap isn't great but she's bigger than him anyway. I have researched this loads and I get different answer's everytime. Can you touch the kits before they leave the nest or will they get eaten? Thanks

 RE: Bunny Babies
 definatly false..i've been breeding Nethies for about a year now and have checked every single site possible to make sure I was doing things right. It's proven that you can handle the bunnies as much as you want before they leave the nest. As long as you don't leave them out too long or drop them they'll be perfectly fine. In fact, some say it's actually better if you handle them before they leave the nest because it'll help them be used to being handled by the time you start showing them. I know that you're not suppose to handle wild bunnies but that's only because they need to learn life without humans and the mother would think it's not hers. I'm always handling my new babies and they grow up perfectly well and can pose almost perfectly. good luck with your bunnies! have more questions? feel free to e-mail me anytime: bunnisbabbits@yahoo.com and my website: http://www.bunnisbabbits.weebly.com |
