I hope you have the babies in a nest-box with hay of straw. the doe will pull out her hair to keep them warm . ok 1st you let the doe smell your hand, if she reacts agressively wash your hands really good. Then slowly take out her feed bowl. if its drity wash it out with water. Then fill the bowl with feed and slowly put it near the front of her cage. sometimes you have to let them taste the food before you put it in the cage. But you should also check to see how many kits (babies) she had and remove any babies that didn't make it. Make sure that the doe and buck are seperated cause the male might kill the babies.
Oreo, Snoopy, Magic, Honey, and Rocket i could go on for hours.

i have an entire farm of rabbits and they breed all the time. i personally feel its a myth that the mum kills the babies if u touch them. i handle my rabbits all the time, they r amazingly friendly and i even touch thier babies when they r only a few hours old and they have all been fine.........however if ur afraid ur rabbit wont like u invading her nest then please refrain from disturbing it, but u can still handle and feed the mother in all the usual ways you would do.

You must keep the male and female in seperate hutches.
And before you breed you must give the female a hutch with two compartments. Leave the nest box alone. Just put the food in the other compartment as you would normally.
Just put it in quietly and then leave.

Hopefully Flopsy is the mother? Just drop food into the cage at night when it is dark. She will find it. You should also have separated them.
Names for the little un's? Mopsy & Banger,
Enjoy the little critters.

I'm not sure about feeding her...I'm sure if you dont touch the babies she should be ok with letting you give her some food. there are alot of internet sites to help you out as well as talking to the pet store...they would know. as for names...my bunny is named Daphne...shes sooooo cute!..I also like peanut, sweet pea, bun bun and chloe.

Surely you just put food down for the mum, and leave her to it?
