Best Answer

Newborn rabbits get hydration and nutrition from their mother's milk. If the kit (baby rabbit) isn't drinking, it will require medical intervention or else it probably won't survive. Call your rabbit-savvy vet and ask for advice.

How often do newborn dwarf bunnies need to eat?

^^ well you can only feed it twice a dayand by giving it healthy food not junks like sweets or lettuceif you give lettuce to your Bunnie it will get diarrhea and it will get sickYou don't feed a newborn rabbit anything unless it has been orphaned. The mother will take care of it. If you have an orphan you should feed it 4 times a day. You should feed it kitten replacer and don't forget to stimulate it so that it goes to the bathroom.Why are you feeding a newborn baby rabbit?? Is it orphaned? A mother rabbit feeds her babies once or twice a day. If you are attempting to feed an orphaned baby on a bottle you will need to feed it 3 or 4 times a day (space out evenly). Don't forget the other MAMA duties. Stimulate the baby rabbit to urinate by rubbing it's genitalia GENTLY with a warm water dipped cotton ball. The mother rabbit does this until the baby is able to remember to do this itself at about 10 days to 2 weeks of age.
