The rabbits' fur coat is very good at insulating the rabbits skin. Once the rabbits' body temperature heats up the coat, the coat will stay warm like a blanket that just came out of the dryer. The fur is the main way they stay warm.

The other way is snuggling next to each other for warmth. All the heat is shared between the rabbits. They feel warm, happy, and cozy!

Yes they should be warm enough. The female rabbit (doe) that delivered the babies should make a nest using her own fur, newspaper and straw/hay. Make sure that lifvthese sort of materials are provided for her. She should deliver her babies in the nest and they shouldbe warm in there. Hope this helped

A rabbit will also need some sort of shelter, and if it's a pet rabbit straw is good.

Their fur is designed to keep them warm, but you will also see them nuzzling together to share body heat, and moving to stay out of the wind.

Can baby rabbits die from there urine?

Are you asking if babies rabbits can die from getting their urine on them or are you asking if baby rabbits will die if they do not urinate?? Baby rabbits will die if they are in an unsanitary nest full of their urine (a wet nest) baby rabbits will also die if they are not stimulated to urinate which the mother does after she feed s them until they are old enough to go without her stimulation. That is why if you are bottle feeding you must stimulate the babies to get them to urinate everytime you feed them.
