It's an unusual thing for us to get to see the entire labor process with these rabbits. Typically the baby bunnies are all of a sudden just there one morning but this Saturday when Kenn went to check on the rabbits, this particular momma was just starting to pluck tufts of her fur out for her nest. So, Kenn and I spied on her to see what she would do and how long the whole process would take. It was pretty anti-climactic as she sat in her nest box and 10 to 15 minutes later she was out and eating her food. Kenn gave her some asparagus ends so we could distract her in order to pull the nest box out and check on the little creatures. Pictured below is what we found. Two already wiggly bunnies!
