If you touch a rabbit under 6-8 months the mother will start to think the ones you hvae touched are not her little loved ones and if u don't leave them alone she may kill or just not feed them and they will have to be hand reared xx i xxANSWER: That's not necessarily true. If the mother is a new mother, first timer, 10 kits may be too many for her to handle. There could be something wrong witht eh kits, usually a mother rabbit's instincts are very good. She will abandon the babies if they will die later or will have diformities or are sick.

Theres a number of reasons why a mother would abandon her kits.PS if you touch rabbits when they are born then your hands have to be SOOOO clean.
