Here are some useful guidelines on baby rabbit care:
1. A nest box with the size enough for the mama doe's size and her litters is needed. Make sure you lines the nest box with hay and straw.
2. Lined the nest box with hay and straw, no softwood shavings please.
3. The room temperature should be warm enough for the newborn bunnies.
4. Observe within 24-48 hours if mama doe is feeding her litters, if not, make sure you give those poor litters something to nourish them.
5. Feed the newborn with canned kitten formula or kitten formula replacer.
6. Do not use any eyedropper. Try using syringe instead.
7. Clean the face and bottom of the litters every after each feeding.
8. If the litter's urine is gritty brown, immediately call your vet. This is dangerous for their health.
9. Check if the bunnies are dehydrated. Feed them with Pedialyte is needed.
10. Make sure your place is safe for your newborn such from other housepets like your dogs and cats.
11. Cow's milk and fruit juice is also a big no-no. The ingredients of these two could give your newborn some messy fecal.
12. Mama doe needs extra foods such as pellets because she needs calorie to produce enough milk for her litters.
13. Include Lactobacillus Acidophilus in their milk to help strengthen their bodies.
