Mama with her baby bump before the delivery. |
The proud mama, the black bunny, is shown above with her baby bump before giving birth. Papa is pure white and settled comfortably into his temporary home.
Julia only picked up this baby because it was flopping around wildly and she wanted to see if something was wrong, but it settled right down in her hand. She researched first to make sure the mother won't abandon a baby if a human touches it. It's all good.
Julia set up this little nursery just in the nick of time in her spare bedroom. She reported tonight that mama and the babies are all doing fine, but papa doesn't like being kept away from them.
When the babies are weaned, she will try to find homes for them, adopting them out in pairs so they won't be lonely. She will have mom and dad neutered and spayed and require that adoptive parents do the same to avoid the cycle of too many pet rabbits being abandoned.
The nursery setup before the big day. |
Have a colorful day
How sweet! I didn't know babies were born without fur. I've never seen a newborn before! I hope she is able to find good homes for them all... <3
