Rabbit breeders, please assemble once again.?

Yes it is possible that the mice did this to the kit but most likely I would tend to believe the kit had died beforehand. If the kit had died in the night the mother may have done this in an attempt to "clean up the nest" We did have one doe that did this with a kit that had died, we actually saw her and were able to remove the kit. She never harmed any of the kits she was just trying to keep the nest clean and keep predators away. The noises are normal, especially if it is close to feeding time.You handling the kits should not harm anything but I would get rid of the gloves. Mom is more used to your smell than the smell of the gloves so would be less stressed this way. It's ok to touch the kits, if you pet mom before you touch the kits it calms her down and also makes you scent not so strong.

If you need more information on what to expect go to this site and look at their breeding page.

I would definitely blame the mice for the injured kit. I strongly recommend you move your bunnies to a more rodent free area!

It is a myth that the mother bunny will abandon her babies if they are touched by people. I handle my babies from birth, with out gloves! You don't want to over handle newborns, but you should be checking them over a couple times a day. By a week they should be getting more handling, otherwise you are going to have some wild bunnies on your hands !!! Go ahead, pick them up!

If the mama bunny is territorial about her cage, just take her out while you check the babies. Also, baby bunnies (especially those that are not used to people) are very jumpy! Make sure you have one hand over the babies, to prevent them from jumping and hurting themselves.

Hope this helps!

I went by using a large Strokes section some years in the past. I nevertheless like them, yet they're far from favorites. BQ: Juicebox, Razorblade (so sarcastically emo lol), on the different area, Reptilia and evening sunlight are my favorites. BQ2: Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Rage against the device, pink warm Chili Peppers, little question, 9 Inch Nails, Blind Melon, Nirvana, the Rolling Stones, the Beastie Boys, Jack Johnson, the Offspring... you anticipate me to be waiting to narrow this checklist down? i'd say Gogol Bordello, yet besides the undeniable fact that they are NYC-based, i would not inevitably say they're from u . s . a ..

the gloves shouldn't matter and yes mice can and will most likely do that they are very destructive buy a few chickens they solve your mouse problem

What do you expect? You left a couple delicate babies weighing ounces outside...this is an unfortunate but unavoidable accident. Does should be kept inside when nursing, preferably ALL the time.
