A short visit from the bunnies

We had a very short visit with six new bunnies our rabbit had. We have 1 female and 2 male rabbits. Unfortunately, we did not realize she was pregnant. Since then we have learned much about rabbits. Their gestation period is only 31 days and they ovulate with each intercourse. So maybe more than you wanted to know but it is very important to know this information because that means we could be having bunnies every 31 days. Now we understand the standing joke about rabbits. I guess it is true. So one morning Chris found six new bunnies that were born in the night. It was a very cold night and when he found them they were exposed and the Mama was not caring for them like she should. This is our fault we needed to separate them and give her a nesting box. Which we have now done. Two of the six didn't make it through the night and the other four were barely hanging on. We separated the Mama and hoped for the best. The other four died before the day was done. The kids were very excited and sad when the were gone. We learned a great lesson and will keep them separated until the Spring, when the weather gets warmer. They sure were cute. So tiny with cute floppy ears.
