Nine days ago, my five year old got a bunny for her b-day. Three days ago, I came home from work to find two babies in the cage. One alive; one dead. I thought that maybe the one had been stillborn and she was still in labor.
She didn't have anymore until yesterday after noon , when I found a second dead one. I know that it was not in the cage the previous day. My major concern is that these babies are not small and pink. They were all at least 2-3 inches long and they had fuzz on them. The mother did not leave any signs that she attempted to eat them, although she did chew the cord off on both.
Is it possible that she went too far overdue and the two died as a result. The mother seems to feel fine, is eating well, and nursing the baby. I still see some spotting though and have been spot cleaning her cage. I cannot afford to take her to the vet as we didn't plan on a bunny, let alone babies. She is a dwarf and she was NOT obviously pregnant or overweight.
