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.

Are rabbits ok to leave alone indoors?
It is OK to leave rabbits alone inside, as long as they are in a cage or hutch of some sort. If they are not, they will chew all of your stuff and go to the bathroom all over the place (if they are not litter trained). If you are transferring the rabbit(s) from outside, then you should do it gradually so as not to kill the rabbit(s) by exposing it to too much heat.

Is it ok to give an indoor rabbit letuse during winter?
It is OK to give ANY rabbit a small amount of lettuce as a treat only, anytime. The only rabbit who can eat as much lettuce as they want is the wild rabbit who has access to herbs and minerals to counter balance the lettuce. Domestic rabbit owners should remember the tale of Peter Rabbit and what happened to him when he ate too much lettuce in Mr. MacGregor's garden.
What do you do if mother rabbit bites her babies?
If the mother rabbit dies take care of the baby rabbit like its motherfeed it the baby rabbit food.If the mother dies before babies are weaned you can get baby kitten milk replacer and a kitten baby bottle and feed the babies. IT IS A REALLY HARD JOB. The babies must be fed and then stimulated to go to the bathroom and then cleaned up just as the mother rabbit would do. (you can also feed them canned goat milk, I say canned because not too many people have a fresh goat on hand.)If the baby is old enough to be eating rabbit pellets you are OK, just give the baby extra grass hay and plenty of water (maybe put electrolyes made for rabbits in the water.)
