Hi Ken! Welcome to BB! I read your post and I wanted to let you know that I did see your pictures. I removed them from your post because they may be disturbing to some members. We are a forum for house rabbits and we advocate for spaying/neutering. This means that you won’t find very many experienced members here when it comes to baby bunnies and their care. There are a few members that have done rescue that have some experience. If they would like to chime in, they are more than welcome to PM you and you can share the pictures with them there.
Here are the rules regarding this topic:
D. Discussions of Breeding and Rabbits as Livestock: Discussions involving intentional breeding (of any animal) and meat & fur rabbits are not allowed.
• Accidental Litters: We are not a site or forum that has the necessary experience to advise you in this matter. It would be better for your bunnies to use reliable resources for pregnant/nursing does and their babies. Here is a list of resources that you may find very helpful:
http://www.bio.miami.edu/hare/surpriselitter.html
http://www.rabbit.org/care/babies.html
http://www.rabbit.org/care/newborn.html
http://www.mybunny.org/info/newborn.htm
-Rabbitsonline.net, caters to a broader range of experience, may also be of help.
-Be sure to seek vet care and advice.
-Do not use this forum to give or sell bunnies as well.
-Since we don’t allow prolonged discussions regarding this, the thread will be locked.
-We hope you will find the above resources useful. Please feel free to to ask about other aspects of caring for your bunny
D-1 Baby bunny photos: Do not post pictures of the litters unless you plan on keeping them.(or whichever one or so you plan to keep).
Photos are allowed under these circumstances:
This is your own baby bunny that are already have or are planning to buy/adopt/acquire. Avoid posting photos of babies under 8 weeks of age.
Accidental Litters – You may only post pictures of the rabbit that you are certain you will keep. Bunny must be at least 8 weeks of age in photos, and the image cannot contain any other rabbits that you are not keeping. While we understand that accidental litters do happen, these photo threads can distract from our main focus of helping members care for their bunnies. Therefore, we ask that if you want to show off the bunny you intend to keep, that you contain your photos and updates to a single thread in the Lounge.
You are foster, volunteer, or work for a certified rescue/shelter. Post in the Rescue Section only and provide the shelter name & link to the shelter in your first post. Keep updates to a single thread.
That being said, I will leave this thread open for now in case one of the experience members wants to comment.
