34 days is kinda long but it can happen 30-35 days after breeding a doe should give birth. Has your doe made a nest yet? Some rabbits don't make nest until a few minutes before they give birth. But are you sure she's pregnant? A good way to check is to work your hand gently under her belly and see if you can feel the kits moving inside her. If she really is 34 days then you should feel some movement in her belly. Hope everything goes well. :)

Usually when does go that long, they deliver dead kits, so prepare yourself. None of my breedings have ever gone past day 31 without kindling, although a couple of my litters have been surprises, so don't know exactly how long she carried them.


I have Doe who have 34 days on the mark and everytime. After 35 days usual born dead or fetal giant (giant baby that dead) I find bigger breeds take 32-34 mark.

I see does make her nest while have her kits.

Was just suggesting that she prepare herself, just in case. I definitely do not wish that on anyone, and I hope her doe kindles easily, with healthy babies!

Sadly comes with the territory. I had a beautiful promise buck 12wks play and pull a disk in his back lost all function of his back legs. I had a friend mine put him down because I personal can not. I cry for hrs loose Marcus. He was very first death in world rabbits.
I never wish anyone rabbit have differcult but it risk with anytime breed a doe. All one can do is make sure doe is healthy, of age breeding (not old), not over weight or to thinand make sure could handle carry babies.
I have also notice fine bone and curverture of back ( high rise back) run high risks slip disk in back or pull muscles.
I have purebred Flemish Giant Doe who will never bred because she has to curves to much and she grew to big
her bone frame. She weights 26.5 lbs. Her sire and dam were big but not as big her

Hello! My name is .:.Willow.:., and please call me Will. I have a no-mane lion head male named Nali. He is black and fluffy and... well, yeah. I just wanted to know if anybody had, like, a bunny schedule. If so, I'd like to hear it, hour by hour. I just think it would be useful, as I am not the best bunny care taker. :) I'm pretty good, though. :P
Because I met my best writing/internet buddy through her signature, I decided to list a bunch of things about me. Not that I like making friends. Or that I'm good at it.

Harry Potter; Lord of the Rings; The Hobbit; The Silmarillion; Anything Tolkien Really; My Little Pony; FimFiction; Fanfiction; AppleDash; TwiDash; RariJack; Writing; Poetry; Camp NaNoWriMo; NaNoWriMo; Rabbits; My Pet Rabbit Nali; Slender; Steam; Team Fortress 2; Minecraft; SkyDoesMinecraft; HuskyMudkipz; PewDiePie; Stephano (duh!); Smosh; Ian is Best Smosh; Woona is Best Princess; The Youtubes; Skypes; Scrivener; Movies; Scripts; Award Shows; Elijah Wood aka Frodo; Pippin is Best Hobbit; Tumblr; Shadowlands MC; Tinq.

Take... whatever you want from that. Just, please, no weird, obsessed stalkers, okay?

Okay.*

*Fault in Our Stars reference anyone?

Hi :3

I wake up at 6am to go to school, around 7:00 is when i actually leave the house, and i'll run over and give them a cup of pelets in their bowl.

I get out of school around 2:00ish and when i get home i will completly clean the try, fill the water bottles and change the chaff, i'll usually take them out and play with them a little, let them hop around in the grass and eat it.

and then around 8pmish i'll give them another cup of pelets and some hay, sometimes i toss in a few little carrots or a yogurt droplet.

[Please keep in mind i have two growing, larger breed bunnies in the same hutch]
