How many babies born at once?
1-5 lynx kittens are born at once. If the mother is fed well she can have even 6 or 7. If not she will either have 1-3 babies, or none. Lynx in the winter babies are born covered with a wrapping that they formed in. The mother quickly eats the covering so the babies, or kittens, can breath, and the mother eats and gets nutriention.

What to do once a rabbit has babies?
Leave them alone. The mother has got the care of her babies covered. :) You SHOULD check the babies once they are born to make sure there are no dead babies in the nest. Then once a day to make sure none have died and mom is feeding them (full round bellies and sleeping). Wash your hands with unscented soap before you check the babies so you do not leave any unwanted scents on the babies. After they open their eyes (10 days) you will be able to see them peaking out of the nest without disturbing them.
Should you keep a male rabbit in with the female when she has babies?
No, it'll be possible for the female rabbit to become pregnant again 12 hours after giving birth to her litter. Unless you want even more rabbits a month later... bad idea.
Is it ok that a mother rabbit is stepping on her its or will this kill them?
If a mother rabbit is stepping over or around it's litter of babies, they should be okay. If the mother is acting aggressive or neglectful, it might not be okay. Sometimes a mother rabbit is not ready to accept a litter of babies, and she will kill them. If she is very young she sometimes does not have the ability to care for the newborns, and she will kill them. I had a rabbit who did this once. It is nature's way. If you think the newborns are in danger, you can remove them from the mother and try feed and care for them yourself. If they are very young you may be unsuccessful. Try calling a responsible animal store, or your local vet for advice. Some shelters have people who are very well trained in these situations also. You will know if the babies are in true danger. Good luck.
Can a rabbit be left with the male when she is pregnant?
No because once the female has her baby or babies the male will kill them so the best thing to do is move the male to a different cage and do not touch the mother wile she is pregnant you could harm the babies.
Does the mom rabbit ever leave her baby at the age on two days old?
A mother rabbit only feeds her babies once or twice a day. I'm not quiet sure what your question is. You will probably never see her feed the kits.
