What are the signs of a phantom pregnancy in a rabbit?
The main sign of phantom pregnancy is nesting. The bunny will start to pluck out the hair on her chest and tummy to build the nest with. In the case of some rabbits they will pull hair out of a bonded mate to nest build also. You will often see a nesting bunny frantically running around with a mouth full of hay to take to her nest. If you bunny is nesting without reason (i.e. she has not been bred, she is spayed, she has not had any contact with a male) then you can pretty much be sure it is a phantom pregnancy. A phantom or false pregnancy can be detected in several ways. If you have not bred your doe you KNOW it is a false pregnancy. If she goes over 32 days it is a false pregnancy. You can palpate at 15 days and if you do not feel babies but she insists on nesting you will know it is a false or phantom pregnancy. A doe having a false pregnancy will nest just like a doe that is pregnant. I have witnessed some that tend to go overboard nearly stripping themselves naked because no babies come. The doe that you determine to be having a phantom or false pregnancy should be bred immediately. There should be no 'bonded mate' for a doe with phantom pregnancy every rabbit should have it's own cage.
What if your rabbit keeps pulling out her fur but you don't see a nest?
If your rabbit is pulling out its fur, but you don't see a nest, then it probably isn't pregnancy or false pregnancy, it's probably stress.Stress can be caused by a bad lifestyle or environment, or a traumatic experience, or extreme boredom, or illness. Aside from self-mutilation (pulling fur), stress leads to a low quality of life and can lead to severe, deadly illness (GI stasis, for example). You should do everything you can to give your rabbit a happy life and minimise stress.You should also look for other signs of illness to see if there's an underlying problem, and be prepared to bring the rabbit to a vet with experience and knowledge in rabbits.Consider spaying/neutering the rabbit, because sex hormones also contribute to stress.There's also the possibility that your rabbit has a parasite or other skin problem.It's also possible that your rabbit is pregnant or has a false pregnancy, but doesn't know how to make a nest.See the related questions and links below for details on all of the above possibilities.
What is a phantom pregnancy in a rabbit?
A false or phantom pregnancy for a rabbit is when a female bunny believes it is pregnant but acually isnt. They will start to pull fur from there stomach and bottom area to make a nest, They can be temperamental too, (eg. Grunting when you go near them or not wanting to be touched) It is quite common for bunnys to have phantom pregnancies but generally it is better to get a vet to check them over just incase. Do not try to feel for the babies yourself as this can severely damage and even kill them. The vet will do it professianally. Or if you cant afford a vet then you will have to wait and see. ( 1 month) Hope this helps.

You are taking clomid to try to get pregnant would that affect the pregnancy signs?
I am going to answer this two different ways only because i want to make sure you get the answer you are looking for because I am not clear on "pregnancy signs": I think you mean signs and symptoms of pregnancy--yes the clomid has side effects in which can be the same as pregnancy signs. The other way this could be interpreted is "pregnancy signs" as in signs on a urine pregnancy test: clomid can cause a false positive or false negative sign so blood test most accurate. Hope this helps.
