If your rabbit made a nest 2 weeks ago and hasn't had babies yet, she isn't going to. Grunting is probably a sign that she is ready to breed and don't be surprised if she is pretty aggressive. You should breed your doe, count out 30 days on your calendar - that is the day she is due- count 27 days within the 30- that is the day you put a nest box in with her so she has time to build a nest before the babies get there. She should not have a nest box all the time. Be sure you put the nest box in a corner of her cage that IS NOT her potty corner. If you do she will use it for a potty (like a cat litter box).
Rabbits might grunt for a few different reasons:if the grunt is like a growl, the rabbit might be angryif the grunt is softer and repetitive, the rabbit might be excited (it could be playing, or it could be sexually stimulated)when your rabbit is hungry it will gruntSee the related link below for more information about rabbit communication and body language.
If your female is an adult, it may not get along with a young rabbit. Do not just put a new rabbit in a cage with your old rabbit. Get both rabbits fixed first, to get rid of hormones that will make them aggresive and terratorial.

The second site has tons of info. You can also ask questions about rabbit care to a person at a pet store, rabbit shelter, rabbit owner, or vetrinarian.
The idea of love may not mean much to a rabbit, but being well cared for and gently handled certainly will.

Yes, a rabbit can get sick and die from getting soaked in water. The rabbit might get hypothermia from being wet; or it could go into shock or GI stasis from being highly stressed - any of these situations could lead to death if the rabbit isn't quickly treated by a vet with experience and knowledge in treating rabbits. See the related questions below for help.

Yes! there are reasons you need a prescription for there pills, and they shouldn't ever be such an addiction that you need to take them while you are pregnant. No damages were ever proven to be done to your child, however, the state takes away babys that have adicts as moms...this includes babys who are born on narcotic pain releavers, without a prescription.
I have found that with my own rabbits they started to pull their hair out when they are fertile in preparation for being pregnant. The rabbits I had did this when there was no other rabbits around, and the vet I go to said that when they start it is a sign that the bunny is becoming mature.

Yes, a rabbit can build a nest without being pregnant. Usually false pregnancies cause this, where the doe believes she is pregnant and the body goes through the motions of pregnancy (i.e. eats more, builds a nest, can become aggressive, etc.). You may also notice a very crude version of a nest by either bucks or does during a heavy molt. If the rabbit sleeps in one spot and already has a "bed" made, while the fur is being molted out it can get caught within the bed and look like a very crude nest. *Note: This is not actually a rabbit making a nest, but can be mistaken as such*
The rabbit test was a pregnancy test that was developed by two German scientists in 1927. If a woman was thought to be pregnant, her urine was injected into a rabbit. If the pregnancy hormone (hcG) was present, then the rabbit developed certain ovary changes. It is a common misconception that if the rabbit died, the woman was pregnant, and if the rabbit lived, she was not. However, the rabbit died either way because the rabbit had to be killed so its ovaries could be surgically removed and examined. The test was very popular in the 1930's - 1950's. The rabbit test stopped being commonly used in the 1960's when modern pregnancy tests were developed. Rabbit Test was also a 1978 movie starring Billy Crystal.
When the dreamer is not pregnant or trying to become pregnant, dreams about babies usually represent a project, idea or task the dreamer is struggling to develop. In this case, one aspect of a project or contract might be in danger of being canceled.
Type your answer here... No... Babys need more attention, due to them being babys.
