that will always be the female that is pregnant with her kits
Where did she have her babies? On the wire? They will die. In a nice warm nest box with plenty of bedding and she pulled fur?? They will be just fine. You will probably never see your rabbit in the nest box with her babies. They are very secretive about nursing their kits.
A doe (female rabbit) will pluck its fur before giving birth because it is preparing a nest for her kits (baby rabbits). She will use the fur to keep the kits warm when she is not in the nest.
The rabbit normally builds her nest about 2-3 days before her kits are due to be born.

No, if they are nursing babies, mom will feed them til they get old enough to look for food on their own. If they are young but not nursing, they will smell the food and find it.
Yes, Squirrelflight can have kits. She has raised kits in the past in the Warriors book series.
could be pregannt and trying to build a nest and show the tets for kits.
WELL if you disturbed the nest leave it alone for a long time, make sure you do not touch the nest because she can be so stressed and scared that she will hold the babies in and then she and her kits(baby rabbits) will die!
Kits as young as two to three weeks will manage to crawl out of the nest (to be dragged back by the mother)
No. Build Nest, Sleep = going strong.
NEVER ever do that! The mother will get freaked out and stress for her babies' safety
