Well maybe not quite yet, and certainly not too many to eat yet as we are still waiting for the babies to be big enough (another month at least), but we have been given another rabbit. She is Bernardette's mum, her owner just has too many and didn't want to eat her as she is a bit old at a year and a half - he was talking of setting her free, I don't suppose she would have lasted long. We thought it would be madness to turn down a free rabbit as we can always eat her (I think older rabbit like that should still be excellent stewed), but we are planning on breeding her for now. She is a bit of a nervous wreck at the moment but hopefully will calm down, she had a stressful day travelling yesterday. She is called Beatrix.
Mrs Robinson's babies are still alive today. I still haven't looked closely, I can see the nest heaving from a distance and there appear to be quite a few in there.
