At the same time we had a huge problem with ground squirrels. We did not want to put out poision for the squirrels because it would hurt the bunnies! It was neat to pull into the driveway and see half a dozen or more cute little cotton tails munching on the grass

All this talk of rabbit breeding just cracks me up. I thougt that was where the phrase cam from.. you know….”breed like a bunch of rabbits”?! Guess not all rabbits are super fertile oh well better luck next time Kendra!

She pulled her hair out about a week or so ago, and JUST had her babies 2 days ago. She only had 5 or 6 this time, 9 in the the past 2 litters. I haven’t dug in the nest too much, as it is cold in West TN, and I don’t want them to get chilled.
We had our buck and doe together from February to May, and nothing. We intended to get 2 does, but that didn’t happen. Ha Ha. It could be that the buck or doe you have are a little young, yet… Blessings to you and the family !!
