  So basically my Bunny Lola (9 months) has swollen nipples, I’m super concerned. She had a baby (Luna) about 10 weeks ago it was her first pregnancy and it was an accident. Luna has still been trying to get milk on and off- so long story short we decided it was time that Luna be weaned completely (since her mom Lola would run away every time she tried to have a drink)
  ANYWAYS So they have been seperated for about 4 days now, but last night I went to pick Lola up and her nipples were super swollen, she doesn’t seem to be acting any different, and they aren’t really puffy or anything they just are protruding quite a bit and a lot larger then normal. Should I be concerned ?? Has anyone had this happen? Is it because she is not longer giving milk or something else?
  Please share anything you might know. Thank you.

  We have few members that know anything about lactating does and raising small kits. Rabbits Online is probably a better forum for your question. It seems your Lola is still producing milk. In a human you’d pump it out, but I’ve never heard of that being done with a rabbit mum. It’s sth you should try and find out about though, so a I think you need to find a forum where there are breeders. Rabbits Online has a forum section called The Rabbitry and Show-Room where breeding issues are discussed.
