Rabbits usually make their nest somewhere it is dark, quiet, away from activity, and safe from harm. Pet rabbits can use a small cardboard or wooden box. Wild rabbits dig burrows underground and often make their nests in a stopped up room at the end of a tunnel.

Doe rabbits often have false pregnancies. If it has been over 30 days since you bred your rabbit and she built a nest but had no babies she had a false pregnancy. Next time you breed her let the buck 'hit' her 3 or 4 times. Then keep accurate records of due date. You can palpate your doe at 2 weeks to see if she is pregnant.

Does your bunny poop alot when pregnant?

how do you know if a rabbit is pregnant About 5 days before a rabbit is going to have bunnies they will begin to build a nest with hair from their chest.


Your bunny has laid her nest already and you need to know if you can move her to the rabbit hut now or wait till the babies are born?

You will not want to disturb her or the babies after they are born. I am not sure how she will react to the change you make to the nest. Do it very quietly and peacefully and hopefully the hut will have the same sounds and temperature as where she is now. Also, note that there are specifics that the rabbit nest must have since the babies can have problems with the ammonia from their urine. When our rabbit had babies I was surprised at how tender they are to having just the right situation--make sure the male is not located close by.


When a rabbit is about to have babies do they pull there hair out to make a nest or another rabbits hair out?

Your bunny has decided she does not want to use hair for whatever reason... or in any case, not her own hair. What you could do is put the hair from the other bunny in an area where she can take it if she wants it and just see how it goes. Just make sure that the other rabbit's fur you use isn't a male


When can you clean out baby rabbits nest?

What is a SQIRRELS house called?

SQUIRRELS don't really live in houses. Sometimes they will make a nest out of leaves and twigs, and sometimes they make that nest inside a hollow tree. Most animals don't really bother to live inside like humans do, unless they have babies. Squirrels do raise babies inside hollow trees.

Will a rabbit kill her kits if you touch her nest?

No but a cottontail mother may abandon her nest if you touch it. Domestic rabbits will not kill their babies if you touch their nest ,however, they may stomp their babies because there are predators (cats, dogs, weasels, owls, snakes) around, or loud noises like traffic or children screaming. They will stomp them because they are jumping in and out of the nest trying to protect them. You can touch a domestic rabbits nest if your bunny trusts you. Just put a dab of vanilla on your does nose and on the rim of the nest box. Wash your hands and make sure they are free of all lotion, perfume, soap or dog smells. Check the babies quickly to make sure all are alive and put the nest box back.
