I'm in such cases, watching the birth of baby rabbits and postpartum females of the problem, take her away from the cell. Pull newborn rabbits, checking their condition. For rabbits I have built nest boxes, and their fabrication is described in another article. At the bottom of the box put sawdust on top construct a nest of hay. Take the rabbit and plucking feathers from her, as a rule it is easily separated from the abdomen and thighs. It is better to remove the hair around the nipple, that would be rabbits can easily get to them.

Put half of fluff in our nest and place where rabbits, the second half down harbor them.
Females are very well recognize the odors after birth they are very excitable, because they need to protect the offspring. For this, I'm taking a bit of litter from the cage female rabbit (preferably with balls of feces) and sprinkle top nest boxes, sides wipe it with this litter. You can now install nest-box with the rabbits in the far dark corner of the cage. It is necessary to wait about 20 minutes, that would be a new nest smelling their cage and disappeared the smell of our intervention. Now you can run krolchihu. desirable to check the state of rabbits, removing the front of this female from the cage and running it until it erode our smell, it's about 20 minutes.

Approximately a month to Popo rabbits koktsidiostatikom (baykoks 1mllitr water), as I wrote above is a very common disease of young rabbits up to 3 months. A week after that, you should get rid of worms. In 45 days of vaccination rabbits from myxomatosis and vgbk. You can then otsadit from female rabbits. During this period, rabbits inhibited the growth of the lack of mother's milk. Care should be taken chair rabbits and quality of forage. Should not be given during this period of succulent forage. Should only be fed hay, dry food and water. Because of the lack of adherence to feeding in young rabbits may begin diarrhea, you want to be treated quickly. Diarrhea krolchonok may die within two days. I use laktofiltrum, crush one tablet mixed with water and drink pet rabbit.
