When should I feed my newborn rabbits?
My rabbit gave literately 30 minutes ago I left her with them to how she goes, but when I went back 2 were dead and the others cold but alive. So I took them into the house and I have put some shredded paper, straw and a nice warm towel in a medium sized box. There now warm and things but I don't know how to feed them. My friend said you can hold the mother on her back and put a baby (one at a time)on a teat for it to drink. I tried it but the mother just flipped and went crazy, so how and when should I feed my babies? ( there's 5 of them left and they are english cross a small one / don't know her breed)
What should I do with my newborn rabbits?
My rabbit gave birth literally 35 minutes ago and I left her with them to see how she goes but when I next checked on then 2 were unfortunately dead and the others cold but alive. So I took them in and put them in a box full of shredded paper in a donut shape (as the base) a towel on the bottom for a bedding and also straw for bedding too, I also had taken some of her fur to keep her scent on them. My friend said you can feed them by holding the mother on her back and putting one baby at a time on a teat for it to drink, but when we tried that she flipped and went crazy, so now I need to know another way on how to feed them. PLEASE HELP MEEE!
