I'm feeling punnerific today.
We've lost three of Jasmine's babies. Don't have any idea why they passed away, it's not from lack of care from Jasmine.
Speaking of- the silly girl finally, on Day 4 of their lives, pulled fur. I think she's had such a rough time with her other litter attempts that she didn't want to go through the heartache of pulling fur for a dead litter again. Bunnies are funny sometimes.
She's being a very nice mother at this point- not eating or soiling the hay in the box, all the babies are fat and happy- even her jersey wooly foster baby is a porker! Not sure what I'm going to do as far as that goes- the fostering will work while they are in the box, but I worry about when they get older. Wooly babies are considerably smaller than a young hare. I guess I should just be happy it's getting fed and quit worrying so much!

Yay Jasmine!! Way to take good care of your baby hares. :)
Oh Keep, I'm so sorry! Loosing kits is never easy, especially when you've waited so long. HUGS to you!
