Beatrix has been with us over a week. Yesterday she was in one of the cages on the lawn and I noticed she was picking the grass, rather than eating it, and carrying it in to the bedroom area in the special way they use when making a nest. So I quickly moved her back in to one of the concrete hutches as the ones on the lawn aren't a great place to be having babies.
A few hours later she had made a nest and had some babies in it! A surprise as she wasn't meant to be pregnant when we got her! She didn't have them in the nest box, but never mind. We are not sure how many there are, or how it is going to go as she is still very nervous from moving home.
We now have four rabbits with babies! From drought to flood!
