Kits, Day 13 (And Then There Were Seven)

So we had a little bit of sadness here this morning.  Charlotte went out to the bunny barn to take care of the morning tasks and check on the kits.  Unfortunately, one of the chocolate kits crawled out of the nest box sometime after the bedtime check last night.  He wasn't stiff yet, but even after half and hour of warming, we couldn't revive him.  While twenty degree temperatures are not too cold for angora rabbits or kits in a nest box, those temperatures are too cold for a kit alone outside the nest. 

Suffice to say, the kits will be sleeping indoors for another ten days or so.

They are definitely plumping up.

  1. So sorry 😢 That is sad.
    On another note, all night long Felix has been telling us that he wants to hold that little rabbit. The boys are so excited to see these posts.

    1. Well, you need to bring Felix over! We'd love to meet him. Of course, you'll be getting your own soon enough, right?
